ABSTRACT
This report describes a case of complete rupture of the peroneal nerve as a consequence of low velocity trauma. A 54-year-old physically fit patient suffered a complex trauma with complete nerve discontinuity as a result of knee joint distortion without external force. The initial medical findings were unremarkable, in particular neither the accident medical history nor the initial sensitivity impairment suggested the presence of serious knee damage; however, during clinical diagnostics a complex trauma with rupture of the peroneal nerve was found. Accordingly, an extensive revision with nerve suturing was carried out.
