25
What do emissary veins do?
Connect the veins of the scalp with the diploic veins of the skull bone, and with the intracranial venous sinuses
26
(Lymph) nodes of the Scalp
Submandibular lymph nodes (anterior part of the scalp and forehead drain into these) Superficial parotid/preauricular nodes (drainage from the lateral part of the scalp above the ear) Mastoid nodes (drainage from part of the scalp above and behind the ear) Occipital nodes (drainage from the back of the scalp)
27
Why does the scalp have an abundant blood supply?
To nourish the hair follicles
28
Why is bleeding of the scalp often hard to stop?
Because the arterial walls are attached to fibrous septa in the subcutaneous tissue The attachment to the fibrous septa makes the walls unable to contract or retract to allow blood clotting to take place
29
What is the only effective way to stop bleeding of the scalp?
Applying local pressure to the laceration
30

When the wound is deep enough to divided the cranial aponeurosis (which is produced by the tone of the Occipitofronalis muscle)
31

Nope. Nada. None.
34
What are wrinkles of the face a result of?
Repeated folding of the skin perpendicular to the long axis of the underlying muscles. Aging skin loses its elasticity.

How can surgical scars of the face be less conspicuous?
If they follow wrinkle lines.
36
The skin of the face is supplied by branches of 3 divisions of the:
