From the observation of 33 specimens of the lower extremities it was discovered that at a point where 15cm below the pubic tubercle, at the lateral or medial border of the sartorius muscle, the femoral artery gave rise a cutancous artery supplying the skin of the anteromiddle of the thigh. At the same area, the skin was innervated by the cutaneous branch of the femoral nerve. According to this anatomic peculiarity of the distribution of the artery and nerve, a skin flap having neurovascular bundle could be constructed from that area for distant transfer. From 1989, this technique had been done in 4 cases with satisfactory results. The related anatomy, operative design, surgical technique and the clinical results were detailed.
