Surgical anchors can be utilized to approximate and hold soft tissue in, at, or near a boney insertion site. In some examples, the surgical anchors include a receiving body and a fixation member such as, for example, a fixation screw. The receiving body may include an elongated connecting member and an aperture defined at a distal end of the elongated connecting member. The aperture may be configured to receive a surgical attachment element. Depending on the configuration, the receiving body may be connected to the fixation member via the elongated connecting member such that the fixation member can move relative to the receiving body. Movement of the fixation member relative to the receiving body may allow a user to control and adjust the amount of tension placed on the surgical attachment element, which may enhance the mechanics of a repair operation.
