NECK
 
 
•The neck is the region of the body that liesbetween the lower margin of the mandibleabove and the suprasternal notch and theupper border of the clavicle below. It isstrengthened by the cervical part of thevertebral column, which is convex forwardand supports the skull
 
 
Skin of the Neck
•The natural lines of cleavage of the skinare constant and run almost horizontallyaround the neck.•This is important clinically because anincision along a cleavage line will heal asa narrow scar, whereas one that crossesthe lines will heal as a wide or heaped-upscar.
