Anatomy. The fibula is a non-weight-bearing bone that is located lateral to the tibia. The fibula articulates with the tibia proximally and the tibia and talus distally.
A medial malleolus fracture is a break in the tibia, at the inside of the lower leg. Fractures can occur at different levels of the medial malleolus.
You probably know the medial malleolus as the bump that protrudes on the inner side of your ankle. It's actually not a separate bone, but the end of your larger leg bone — the tibia, or shinbone. The medial malleolus is the largest of the three bone segments that form your ankle.

The knob on the outside of the ankle, the lateral malleolus, is the end of the fibula, the smaller bone in the lower leg.
At its most proximal part, it is at the knee just posterior to the proximal tibia, running distally on the lateral side of the leg where it becomes the lateral malleolus at the level of the ankle.

A fibular fracture is a break to your fibula caused by a forceful impact that results in injury. It can also happen when there's more pressure or stress on the bone than it can handle. The fibula is a bone in the lower leg stretching from the knee to the ankle and visible from the outside.
