Cervical Fascia PPT Summary
- The cervical fascia is composed of multiple layers, including the superficial, investing, prevertebral, and pretracheal layers.
- The investing layer of deep cervical fascia surrounds the entire neck and splits into superficial and deep layers to enclose the trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles.
- The prevertebral fascia covers the anterior vertebral muscles and extends laterally, forming a fascial floor for the posterior triangle of the neck.
- The carotid sheath is a tubular fascial investment that contains the common and internal carotid arteries, internal jugular vein, vagus nerve, and other structures.
- Infections in the neck can spread through the fascial layers, leading to complications such as retropharyngeal abscess or airway obstruction.
