Fascia Schinaia

Cervical fascia (Fasciae colli) are areas of loose fiber and connective tissue formations that wrap around the muscles of the head from the outside. The fascia is located on the back of the neck: the superficial fascia contains the masticatory muscle. The deep fascia is limited posteriorly by the scalene muscle and continues to the back of the head, where it connects with the supracranial fascia. Passing into the subcutaneous tissue of the chest and back, it forms the cervicothoracic and scapuloclavicular fasciocutaneous beds.

**The fascia of the neck starts from the foramen magnum and descends obliquely downwards, spreading to the base of the skull. The superficial layer continues as the long cutaneous muscle of the neck, located on the sides of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. In front, it runs along the inner edge of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and passes to the back of the head, bending around the neurovascular bundle. It is not possible to palpate the fascia on the neck, because on the outside it fuses with the skin. It can be tense in children when they are restless and sometimes causes difficulty with sudden head movements.**

The uppermost part of the deep fascia of the neck runs horizontally and is adjacent to the muscles of the inner surface of the neck, intertwining with the brachial aponeurosis and forming the basis for the dense shoulder girdle. In addition, this includes the clavicular and sternal fascia, as well as the continuous platysma between these three layers - flab
