The thigh donor site has been used extensively for microsurgical tissue transfer; however, the posterior thigh has been neglected as a potential donor site. The perforators of the profunda femoris artery supply large cutaneous territories that could be useful for lower extremity coverage. The purpose of this article is to evaluate the anatomical basis of the posterior thigh perforator flap and to provide anatomical landmarks with which to facilitate flap dissection.
