## Abstract A model to study the contribution of muscle contraction to the structural capacity of the rat tibia was developed. The right lower leg was tested to failure in three‐point ventral bending during electrically stimulated muscle contraction. The left lower leg was tested without stimulatio

## Abstract Whether or not the fibula should be fixated in combined fractures of the tibia and fibula remains controversial. Several clinical and biomechanical studies have investigated the role of the fibula in lower leg fractures without leading to a common conclusion. We assumed that an intact o
