  Fig. 1. Ultrasonography of the left common fibular nerve shows intraneural swelling and loss of fascicular pattern without discontinuity after a knee posterior dislocation, in transverse axis (A) without and (B) with color doppler imaging, (C) with area (75 mm2) and diameter (9.9 mm) measurements, and (D) in longitudinal axis.
