Long-axis and short-axis musculoskeletal ultrasound images demonstrating a complete Achilles tendon rupture. The long-axis image shows discontinuity of the Achilles tendon with a visible gap between tendon ends and an intact plantaris tendon. The short-axis images demonstrate tendon disruption, surrounding hematoma, and adjacent anatomical structures including the soleus muscle, sural nerve, and small saphenous vein.
