| styloid process of fibula | The pointed upper end of the fibular head to which is attached the arcuate popliteal ligament and part of the biceps femoris tendon. Synonym: apex capitis fibulae, styloid process of fibula. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| nutrient artery of fibula | Origin, peroneal (fibular); distribution, fibula. Synonym: arteria nutriens fibulae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| upper extremity of fibula | The superior extremity of the fibula, which articulates by a facet with the undersurface of the lateral condyle of the tibia. Synonym: caput fibulae, upper extremity of fibula. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fibula | A long bone in the lower leg that is adjacent to the tibia. The fibula supports approximately 1/6th of the body weight and produces the lateral (outer) prominence of the ankle. (27 Sep 1997) |
| lateral surface of fibula | The lateral surface of the fibula. Synonym: facies lateralis fibulae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alveolar border | The most occlusal edge of the alveolar bone. Synonym: alveolar process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border | The ventral or most forward margin of a structure. Synonym: anterior margin, ventral border. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border of eyelids | The anterior edge of the free margin of each eyelid, along close to which the eyelashes are embedded. Synonym: limbus palpebrales anteriores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border of lung | The thin anteromedial or sternal edge of the lung which overlaps the pericardial sac anteriorly and forms the boundary between the mediastinal and costal surfaces. Synonym: margo anterior pulmonis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border of pancreas | The sharp margin between the anterior and inferior surfaces of the pancreas. Synonym: margo anterior pancreatis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border of radius | The ridge on the shaft of the radius extending from the radial tuberosity to the anterior part of the styloid process. Synonym: margo anterior radii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border of testis | An imaginary convex line demarcating the lateral and medial surfaces. Synonym: margo anterior testis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border of tibia | The sharp subcutaneous ridge of the tibia that extends from the tuberosity to the anterior part of the medial malleolus. Synonym: margo anterior tibiae, anticnemion, shin, tibial crest. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior border of ulna | The ridge on the body of the ulna that extends from the tuberosity to the anterior part of the styloid process. Synonym: margo anterior ulnae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| border | The part of a surface that forms its outer boundary. See: edge, margin, border. Synonym: margo. (05 Mar 2000) |
