Q

Describe the SCALP

A
  1. Skin: abundant BV and glands
  2. (dense) CT has alot of neurovasculature.
  3. Aponeurosis serves as the attachement site for muscle bellies converging from the forehead & occiput (occipitofrontalis muscle) & from the temporal bones on each side (temporoparietalis and superior auricular muscles). Structure are. called epicranius and I by the facial N.
  4. Loose CT has potential spaces that. can fill with fluid if there is injury or infection.
  5. Pericranium- forms the external periosteum of the neurocranium

Q

CN: Detached Scalp:

Easy or hard to put on?

A

Detached scalp is v. easy. to put back on because all neurovascularture supply comes from inferior to superior. Thus, you can reconnect them during surgey.

Q

CN: Scalp infection

A
  • Loose CT (layer four) is danger area because pus or blood spreads easily.
  • Can also pass into the cranial cavity through small emissary veins (pass through parietal foramina in calvaria) to reach intracranial structures –
  • Within the eyelids, even a relatively slight injury or inflammation may result in an accumulation of fluid, causing the eyelids to swell
