Abstract
The neck is the part of the trunk that joins the head and the chest and constitutes its most mobile part. It is essentially cylindrical in shape; length is constant while diameter varies. The expression long neck/short neck
is incorrect, because the length of the neck, understood to be the cervical portion of the vertebral column, does not present significant variations. Conversely, neck width, determined by the development of muscular and adipose masses is extremely variable [1].
Core Messages
At the start of the dissection exercise, we must take a panoramic look for orientation. We then establish the limits of the area of operation and the main landmarks.
2.1 Anatomic Layout
The neck is the part of the trunk that joins the head and the chest and constitutes its most mobile part. It is essentially cylindrical in shape; length is constant while diameter varies. The expression long neck/short neck
is incorrect, because the length of the neck, understood to be the cervical portion of the vertebral column, does not present significant variations. Conversely, neck width, determined by the development of muscular and adipose masses is extremely variable [1].
Significant Anatomical Structures: nuchal region, trachelian region, superficial cervical fascia, middle cervical fascia, deep cervical fascia, superficial cervical lymph node system, deep lymph node system, Delphian lymph node.
Landmarks: mandible, external auditory canal, mastoid apex, superior nuchal line, external occipital protuberance, clavicle, spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebra, linea alba.
2.2 Neck Boundaries
Its upper limits run along the inferior and posterior borders of the mandible, the extreme posterior of the zygomatic arches, the anteroinferior borders of the external auditory canals, the profiles of the mastoid apex, the superior nuchal line, and the external occipital protuberance. Its lower boundaries lie along the superior border of the sternum and clavicles, the acromioclavicular joints, and an imaginary line joining the acromioclavicular joints to the spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebra (Fig.
