Evaluation of Fascia Thickness of the Thigh and Gluteal Areas-An Anatomical Study

Objectives: Plastic surgeons often harvest fascia from the upper thigh or gluteal area of the patient to transplant to other parts of the body. The thickness of the fascia differs depending on its position within the two areas. This anatomical study elucidates the positional variation fascia thickness presents within the two areas.
