Lecture Objectives

• Define the boundaries of the neck.• Describe the fasciae of the neck.• Summarize the main arteries, veins, nerves and lymph nodes of the neck.

• List the muscles of the neck.• Describe the neck triangles.• Describe the key muscles creating the triangles, mainly, sternomastoid, omohyoid and digastric.

• Study the boundaries and content of each triangle.
