The proximal<\/strong> and distal tibiofibular joints<\/strong> refer to two articulations between the tibia and fibula of the leg. These joints have minimal function in terms of movement but play a greater role in stability and weight-bearing. Some studies show that manual movement of the distal tibiofibular joint led to a significant increase in the range of ankle dorsiflexion.
\n The articulations between the tibia and fibula are effected by ligaments which connect the extremities and bodies of the bones. The ligaments may consequently be subdivided into three sets: <\/p>\n

    The proximal tibiofibular articulation (also called superior tibiofibular joint) is an Plane Joint – Arthrodial Joint between the lateral condyle of the tibia and the head of the fibula.
    \n The contiguous surfaces of the bones present flat, oval facets covered with cartilage and connected together by an articular capsule and by anterior and posterior ligaments.
