Diploe

Diploe is a spongy tissue located between the inner and outer layers of the skull. It consists of thin plates of bone tissue, between which there are cavities filled with bone marrow and blood vessels.

Diploe provides nutrition to the bone tissue of the skull. It also gives the skull flexibility and elasticity, absorbing mechanical energy during impacts, preventing fractures. The thickness of the diploe varies in different parts of the skull and depends on the mechanical load in this area.

Thus, the diploe plays an important role in providing strength to the skull while maintaining its relatively low mass. This spongy bone tissue is optimally adapted to protect the brain from mechanical damage.

Diploe is a spongy, loose tissue that fills the medullary space of the calvarial bones and the upper part of the limbic bone, which allows for better support of the calvarial bone in the frontal and occipital region of the skull. This tissue allows the skull to grow in height and protects the brain from injury. In the diploea there are many nerves (V3 cranial nerves), blood vessels and vascular channels that perform an important function in the brain. It also plays a role in the formation of the spinous and arches of the sphenoid bone, which contains a large number of diploic cushions to attach soft tissue to the edges of the bones and prevent their displacement during movement.

Diploe, also known as diploic bone, is a spongy tissue that is located between the inner and outer layers of the human skull. It plays an important role in supporting and strengthening the head skeleton, as well as in shaping facial characteristics and protecting the brain.

The diploe forms early in embryonic development, when key elements of the skull structure are formed. At the time of birth, only a portion of the diploe undergoes recovery from the large growth spurt that occurs immediately after birth.

At birth, a child's skull usually has more space inside than during head growth. As a result, the diploe must expand and contract in response to changes in skull size. Thus, diploe is flexible and pliable
