Surgical anatomy : a treatise on human anatomy in its application to the practice of medicine and surgery . ould then be turnedaway from the side on which the dissection is being made, and retained in positionwith hooks, the skin being raised and reflected from before backward to beyond theanterior border of the trapezius muscle. The skin covering the side of the neck is thin, quite elastic, and can readilybe raised into folds, which always contain the platysma myoides muscle; theseconditions favor the performance of plastic operations. In these respects it differsfrom the skin over the nape of the neck, which is very dense and adherent andmore freely supplied with nerves, but not nearly so well supplied with bloodvessels. Carbuncle is usually seen at the lower part of the back of the neck nearthe median line. The nape of the neck was formerly a common site for the intro-duction of setons and the application of issues.
