Excessively rotated (also called torsion) position of the fibula (calf bone). An increased external rotation of the fibula in the incisura tibiofibularis of more than 5 degrees may lead to an increased pressure and will negatively affect the cartilage.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Fibular torsion is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| GDF5growth differentiation factor 5 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
