Acupoint Dubi(ST35), one of the commonly used acupuncture points in clinical practice, has long been equated as the acupoint Waixiyan(EX-LE5) in the academic community. By referring to the location of ST35 elaborated in the relevant literature in the ancient and modern times, we analyze the evolution of its position and expound its clinical significance of the correct positioning in the present paper. We think that under posture of knee flexion, the position of ST35 should be between the lower edge of the patella and the upper tip of the tibia, at the midpoint of the patella ligament.
