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 $R(T)^{\bot} = \{0\}$.
