A device is for anchoring a suture to a bone. The device includes a suture engaged with an elastically deformable ring biased toward an unstressed steate in which an outer diameter of the ring is D. The ring is compressible for insertion through a hole in a bone stabilization device having a diameter smaller than the diameter D.一種用於將縫線錨定至骨的設備。該設備包括與偏向無應力狀態的彈性可變形環接合的縫線,在無應力狀態下,環的外徑為D。環能夠被壓縮以藉由骨固定設備中的直徑小於直徑D的孔插入。
