AB  - The  scalp  and  forehead  (which  includes  eyebrows)  are  parts  of  the  same  anatomic  structure  (Fig.  11-1).  Eyebrows  are  valuable  landmarks  for  the  meticulous  reapproximation  of  the  wound  edges  and  should  never  be  clipped  or  shaved.  After  the  wound  cleaning  and  hemostasis  are  achieved,  the  base  of  the  wound  always  should  be  palpated  for  possible  skull  fracture.  All  depressed  fractures  should  be  evaluated  by  computed  tomography.
