Chapter 5, Problem 3CCS

21-Year-Old Female with Skeletal Injuries

While riding her bike to campus, 21-year-old Liliana Rose was struck by a car. Examination in the Emergency Department reveals several injuries. Relative to her integumentary system, the following comments are noted on her chart:

Chapter 5, Problem 3CCS, 21-Year-Old Female with Skeletal Injuries While riding her bike to campus, 21-year-old Liliana Rose

•Epidermal abrasions of the right lateral upper arm and anterior shoulder.

•A deep, 2-cm laceration extending vertically on right lateral cheek and a horizontal 1-cm laceration on the temple.

•Cyanosis is apparent in her nail beds and lips.

The lacerated areas are cleaned, sutured (stitched), and bandaged by the emergency room (ER) personnel.

3. Liliana is concerned about scarring to her face. The surgeon tells her that the cut extending along her temple should heal with little scarring, but the one extending up her cheek is more likely to scar. Why might this be the case?
