Medial condyle
The medial condyle is a feature on the tibia or "shin bone", which is the main bone of the human lower-leg and is located anterior to the fibula bone of the lower leg. The medial condyle is located on the medial side of the tibia bone (i.e. the closest part of the tibia to the mid-line of the body), and at the top of the tibia where it forms the knee-joint with the femur.
For diagram showing the location of the medial condyle relative to the fibula, tibia, patella and femur, see the simple sketch below.

See the page about features on bones for more about structures such as a condyle on a bone. It describes a condyle as a:
"Rounded bump or large rounded prominence. Such rounded surfaces usually fit into a fossa on another bone to form a joint."
