Lower extremity of femur Lower extremity of femur The lower extremity of femur (or distal extremity) is the lower end of the thigh bone in human and other animals, closer to the knee. It is larger than the upper extremity of femur, is somewhat cuboid in form, but its transverse diameter is greater than its antero-posterior; it consists of two oblong eminences known as the condyles. Anteriorly, the condyles are slightly prominent and are separated by a smooth shallow articular depression called the patellar surface. Posteriorly, they project considerably and a deep notch, the intercondylar fossa of femur, is present between them. The lateral
Tibia fusus Tibia fusus Tibia fusus, common name Spindle tibia or Shinbone Tibia Gastropod, is a species of large sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Strombidae, the true conchs. This species is widespread in Western Indian Ocean and Western Pacific, from Indochina, China Sea, southern Japan and the Philippines to the Banda Sea, Indonesia, Australia and Oceania. Most "Tibia fusus" live in tropical offshore waters where there is plenty of sand, at depths of 5 to 50 m. The shells of "Tibia fusus" can reach a length of (including the long siphonal canal), with a typical length of 23
