proximal medial tibial periosteal tissues

Subject: proximal medial tibial periosteal tissues

Is proximal medial tibial periosteal tissues referring to one thing here?  Would there be a hypen between medial tibial or commas after proximal, medial, tibial and periosteal? 


A #1 Vicryl suture was used to repair the quadriceps tendon, medial parapatellar retinaculum, and the proximal medial tibial periosteal tissues.

periosteal callus formation or periosteal callous formation?
Subject: periosteal callus formation or periosteal callous formation?

Could you all please tell me what the proper spelling of the above term is? I was under the impression it should be periosteal callus formation, but I got my report back with the correction that it should be periosteal callous formation?

I thought callus was hardened bone or skin and callous was when someone was being insensitive?

Thanks!
