Ankle anatomy
In the context of someone who broke her ankle when ice-skating. It is part of the findings of an examination:
Es zeigt sich eine deutliche Schwellung im Bereich des Aussenknoechels re. mit deutlichem DS ebendort. Beweglichkeit im Sprunggelenk in S10-0-30, forcierte Supination leicht schmerzhaft, V.MFK, hohe Fibula frei.
The rest is fine, but can't find V.MFK!
