摘要:
Disclosed herein are methods and devices for securing soft tissue 804 to a rigidmaterial such as bone 806. A bone anchor 810 is described that comprises a baseand a top such that suture material 808 may be compressed between surfaces on thebase and top to secure the suture 808 to the anchor 810. Also described is an inserter812 that can be used to insert the bone anchor 808 into bone 806 and move the anchortop relative to the anchor base to clamp suture material 808 there between. Alsodescribed is a soft-tissue 804 and bone 806 piercing anchor 800 and associatedinserter 802. Methods are described that allow use of the bone anchors 800 and810 to provide multiple lengths of suture material to compress a large area ofsoft tissue 804 against bone 806.
