The thigh has a large proportion of muscle and fatty tissue, meaning that it's going to take much more pressure to occlude the artery and get an accurate blood pressure than it would in the bicep, the forearm, or the ankle. It's certainly not the best site to use unless you have no other option. So unless you have a really good reason (the patient doesn't have arms or lower legs. Or they have a lot of lymphedema in the arms and PVD, or PVD with a bilateral mastectomy, etc) you shouldn't be using the thigh for blood pressure.
