Integumentary System Overview
 Composed of skin (integument), and its
appendages (hair, nails, sweat glands and
sebaceous glands)
 Protects body for injury or intrusion of
microorganisms
 Helps regulate body temperature
 Houses receptors for sense of touch
Skin
 Largest organ in the body
 Divided into an outer layer and an inner layer:
 epidermis — outer layer
 dermis (corium) — inner layer
The Skin
(continued)
Epidermis
 Consists of several layers of stratified squamous
(scale like) epithelium:
 basal layer — innermost layer
 basal cells are constantly being pushed up, moving older
cells to the surface
 melanocytes — produce pigment (melanin) which gives
color to the skin
 squamous layer — outermost layer
Dermis (Corium)
 Connective tissue layer
 Contains:





blood and lymphatic vessels
nerve and nerve endings
glands
hair follicles
network of elastic and collagen fibers (gives skin elasticity
and toughness)
Subcutaneous Layer
 Layer below the dermis
 Composed of loose connective tissue and adipose
(fatty) tissue
Lesions
 Areas of pathologically altered tissue
 Two types:
 primary
 secondary
Primary Lesions
 Lesions arising from previously normal skin
 Flat, nonpalpable changes in skin color
 Elevated, palpable, solid mass
 Elevation formed by fluid within a cavity
Secondary Lesions
 Lesions that result in changes in primary lesions
 Types:
 Loss of skin surface
 Material on skin surface
 Other secondary lesions
Vascular Lesions
 Lesions of a blood vessel
 cherry angioma — round, bright red blood vessel tumor
often seen on trunk
 telangiectasia (spider angioma) — radiate from central
arteriole most often found on face, neck or chest
Purpuric Lesions
 Lesions as a result of hemorrhages in the skin
 petechia — minute hemorrhagic spot — indicates
a bleeding tendency
 ecchymosis — bruise
Epidermal Tumors
 Skin tumors arising from the epidermis
 dysplastic nevus — mole with precancerous changes
 verruca — wart; caused by a virus
