Study Notes
Layers of the Scalp
- The layers of the scalp from superficial to deep are: skin, connective tissue, aponeurotic, loose areolar, and pericranium
- The skin layer contains sebaceous glands, hair follicles, and sweat glands
Boundaries of the Scalp
- The scalp is bounded posteriorly by the external occipital protuberance and the superior nuchal lines
Aponeurotic Layer
- The occipitalis muscle is associated with the aponeurotic layer of the scalp
Deep to the Connective Tissue Layer
- The loose areolar tissue layer is found deep to the connective tissue layer of the scalp
