The three main veins serving the leg are the anterior tibial vein, posterior tibial vein, and peroneal vein. They are responsible for returning blood from the lower leg back to the heart.
popliteal vein
medial collateral, medial meniscus, and anterior cruciate
The ridge on the tibia head is called the tibial tuberosity. It is a bony prominence on the anterior surface of the tibia where the patellar ligament attaches.
prominent bone markings of the tibia include the tibial tuberosity, medial malleolus, and fibular articular facet.
The three main veins serving the leg are the anterior tibial vein, posterior tibial vein, and peroneal vein. They are responsible for returning blood from the lower leg back to the heart.
femoral, posterior tibial, anterior tibial
The popliteal vein carries blood from the knee to the thigh and calf muscles and ultimately to the heart. The vein is formed from the merging of the two posterior tibial veins and ends as it merges in to the femoral vein.

Dorsalis paedis
The patella and anterior tbia attach to the patellar ligament.
The patellar ligament attaches to the tibial tuberosity, which is a bony prominence on the anterior aspect of the tibia. It is the distal portion of the quadriceps tendon, which extends from the quadriceps muscle over the patella and then becomes the patellar ligament when it attaches to the tibial tuberosity.
The anterior border is the easily felt and very prominent, boney ridge that runs vertically along the front of the tibia (shin).
The Testicular Vein and then into the Penisial Vein.
It is best felt over the lateral aspect of the tibia, midway down the shin.
The femoral vein is the main vein in a human leg.
