Also known as calf bone
四肢動物の後肢を構成する骨
The fibula is the smaller of the two bones in your lower leg, running along the outer side of the tibia (shinbone) and connected to it at the top and bottom. While it's a slender bone that doesn't bear as much weight as the tibia, it plays an important structural role by providing attachment points for muscles and ligaments that support the leg and ankle.

腓骨（ひこつ、ラテン語: fibula、英語: calf bone）は、四肢動物の後肢を構成する骨である。脛骨とともに膝から足首までを構成し、脛骨に対して外側背面を通っている。 脚および足の腓骨側を腓側（ひそく）という。医学用語の外側（がいそく）および日常語の外側（そとがわ）と同じである。腓側の反対側を脛側（けいそく）と呼ぶ。
