The scalp extends from the… to…
external occipital protuberance to nasion (superior to orbital rim)
The layers of SCALP are…
- skin
- connective tissue (dense)
- aponeurotic layer
- loose connective tissue
- pericranium
Superficial scalp wounds into connective tissue layer tend to bleed… if unconcious, may bleed to death from a … injury

gape widely
The aponeurotic layer of the scalp is connecting what two muscles?
frontalis and occipitalis
The scalp is supplied by 3 branches of the ECA and 2 branches of the opthalmic (which is from ICA)
ECA: 1. superifical temporal 2. Posterior auricular 3. Occipital Opthalmic/ICA: 1. Supratrochlear 2. Supraorbital
6 sensory nerves of the scalp (CN and spinal innervation)
- supratrochlear V1
- supraorbital V1
- Zygomatic temporal V2
- Auriculotemporal V3
- Lesser occipital C2, C3
- Greater occipital C2
