The proximal end is flattened, grooved laterally, and articulates medially with the lateral condyle of the tibia. The distal end forms the lateral malleolus. It is grooved laterally, and articulates with the tibia and tibial tarsal medially, with the fibular tarsal bone distally. The proximal end unites with the shaft at about three and a half years, the distal at about two and a half years. The patella is very much compressed transversely and presents three surfaces. The tarsus comprises seven bones. The tibial and the fibular tarsals resemble in general those of the ox. The axis of the tibial is, however, slightly oblique (ven- tro-medial), and its distal end bears a double trochlea for articulation with the cen-.
