Abstract: | Bourgery's artery, the first branch of the popliteal a., delivers further branches to the vastus lateralis and biceps femoris m., by its terminal cutaneous branch, supplies a large territory of the external surface of the thigh. This area can be mobilized as a skin flap pedicle to cover tissue losses in the knee area. |
