摘要：
A surgical fastener apparatus, for securing a surgical mesh material to body tissue including a pair of anchors each having retaining structure formed on an outer surface thereof and a suture tether interconnecting the pair of anchors to one another. The pair of anchors having a substantially cylindrical body having a conically tapered distal end and a planar proximal end. The retaining structure includes a series of semi-circular angled projections having a planar proximal surface and a tapered distal end, wherein a center of each of the angled projections is spaced a distance from a longitudinal central axis of the body portion. The surgical fastener is made from a bioabsorbable material which reabsorbs into body tissue at an appropriate rate, such as for example, polyglycolic acid and polylactic acid.
