Abstract
Tibial hemimelia is an uncommon longitudinal limb deficiency disorder involving the osseous and soft tissue components of the medial part of the leg. It is a syndrome of partial to complete absence of tibia at birth. Because of wide spectrum of presentation of the condition, many authors have tried to classify but none of the classification covers all the variations of tibial hemimelia. The case report presented here is a case of tibial hemimelia with bifurcated ankle having separate skin cover distal end of tibia fibula. This type of tibial hemimelia cannot be classified into any of the category; so far existing classification system is available. Further research is needed to develop a classification system which can include this type of tibial hemimelia.
