## Abstract The gracilis muscle is one of the most extensively used muscles for free tissue transplantation. Its advantages are low donor‐site morbidity with a concealed donor scar, a constant anatomy with large‐diameter vessels, and the potential for a neurosensory flap as well as a large skin pad
