The blood supply to the fibula from the anterior tibial and peroneal arteries was investigated in 66 fresh cadaver limbs by India ink injection and radiographic studies. These studies revealed a reliable blood supply to the proximal epiphysis and the proximal two-thirds of the diaphysis of the fibula from the anterior tibial artery. Although the peroneal artery provided the dominant supply to the shaft of the bone, its contribution to the head of the fibula was scanty. The cutaneous supply of each vessel was defined and correlated with the territories of the other vessels supplying the leg. The vascular anatomy of the leg was examined in 100 clinical angiograms, revealing 21 limbs with anomalies. This reinforces the case for preoperative angiogram studies where transfer of the fibula is contemplated. The technique of harvesting the proximal growth plate and the shaft of the fibula on the anterior tibial vessels alone is described and illustrated with two successful clinical cases, each followed for 4 years. The growth rate of the transferred epiphysis averaged 1 cm per year.
