Paatusoq, mentioned as 'Patursok' by Wilhelm August Graah, is a fjord in the King Frederick VI Coast, Kujalleq municipality, southeastern Greenland. Its name means "The one with the big mouth" in the Greenlandic language.

Geography
Paatusoq Fjord extends in a roughly east–west direction for about  between the Danell Fjord to the north and the Kuutseq Fjord to the south. To the east the fjord opens into the North Atlantic Ocean  southwest of Cape Discord. There are two rocks awash in its mouth and Qasingortoq, a  point marks its entrance. Danell Fjord lies close to the north, running parallel to Paatusoq. 

Paatusoq has a short branch midway into its southern shore at about  from the fjord's mouth with a glacier reaching down to the waterline.

Mountains
In the western part of Paatusoq the mountain ranges on both sides of the fjord rise steeply from the shore to heights of about . The massive succession of mountains on the northern side culminates in Mount Paatusoq (Patuersoq), a magnificent ultra-prominent peak at  towering to a height of  above the glacier at the head of the fjord. This mountain is marked as a  peak in the Defense Mapping Agency Greenland Navigation charts.
