Fibula Anatomy Made Easy | Functions, Side Identification, Muscles, Nerve, Foot Drop & Ossification

This lecture by Dr. Vaishaly Bharambe covers the anatomy of the fibula in detail: • Location & Functions – Where is the fibula bone, and what are its key functions in the leg. • Joints of Fibula – Overview of joints in which the fibula participates. • Side Identification – Step-by-step method to identify right vs. left fibula, a common challenge for students. • Upper End of Fibula – Detailed discussion of attachments including biceps femoris muscle. • Nerve Relations – Division of sciatic nerve into tibial & common peroneal, and course of the peroneal nerve around the fibular neck. • Foot Drop Explained – Mechanism of injury to common peroneal nerve and its effect on extensor & peroneal compartments. • Compartments of the Leg – Cross-sectional view dividing leg into extensor, peroneal & flexor compartments. • Interosseous Membrane – Its connections between tibia & fibula, functional importance, and gaps. • Muscle Attachments o Lateral surface: peroneus longus & brevis o Anterior surface: extensor compartment muscles (with mnemonic “Tall Himalayas Are Never Dry Places”) o Posterior surface: Muscles with mnemonic “Talented Doctors Are Never Hungry”. • Ossification of Fibula – Peculiar ossification pattern and how fibula “breaks the law of ossification.” • Applied Anatomy – Foot drop, Pott's fracture #mbbs #anatomy #biochemistry #physiology #medico #doctors #vbanatomy Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction 0:47 Basic structure of the lecture 1:04 Functions of fibula & joints formed 1:52 Side identification of fibula 5:54 Identification of various parts of fibula 6:25 Upper end of fibula 9:11 Neck of fibula 10:11 Transverse section of right leg 11:38 Foot drop explained 14:01 Borders of fibula 16:11 Surfaces of fibula 17:20 Lateral surface of fibula 21:25 Posterior surface of fibula 25:28 Ossification of fibula #anatomy #boneanatomy #bones #mbbs #medicalstudent #medicalcollege #medstudent 🎥 Related VB Anatomy Academy Videos: 🎥 Related VB Anatomy Videos: HIP BONE – PART 1 of 4 | Anatomical Position, Ilium:    • HIP BONE – PART 1 of 4 | Anatomical Positi...   HIP BONE – PART 2 of 4 | Sciatic Notches, Foramina & Gluteal Attachments Simplified:    • HIP BONE – PART 2 of 4 | Sciatic Notches, ...   HIP BONE – PART 3 of 4 | Ischium Anatomy Simplified:    • HIP BONE – PART 3 of 4 | Ischium Anatomy S...   HIP BONE Part 4/4 – Pubis, Acetabulum & Male–Female Hip Bone Differences    • HIP BONE Part 4/4 – Pubis, Acetabulum & Ma...   Osteology of Femur: Part 1    • Osteology of Femur: Part 1   Osteology of Femur: Part 2-Detailed Anatomy and Clinical Significance-    • Osteology of Femur: Part 2-Detailed Anatom...   Mastering the Knee Joint: Part 1 - Anatomy and Ligaments | VB Anatomy -    • Mastering the Knee Joint: Part 1 - Anatomy...   Knee Joint Series Part 2: Advanced Insights into Ligaments and Movements -    • Knee Joint Series Part 2: Advanced Insight...   General Anatomy of Bone: Part 2 - A Comprehensive Overview:    • General Anatomy of Bone: Part 1 - A Compre...   Visit Our website: https://vbanatomy.com/ Facebook:   / vbanatomy   Instagram:   / vb_anatomy   LinkedIn:   / vbanatomy
