Abstract: In this article we prove the existence of the polar decomposition for densely defined closed right linear operators in quaternionic Hilbert spaces: If $T$ is a densely defined closed right linear operator in a quaternionic Hilbert space $H$, then there exists a partial isometry $U_0$ such that $T=U_0|T|$. In fact $U_0$ is unique if $N(U_0)=N(T)$. In particular, if $H$ is separable and $U$ is a partial isometry with $T=U|T|$, then we prove that $U=U_0$ if and only if either $N(T)=0$ or $$.
