A suture button apparatus is described that comprises a first button, a plate, a second button and a set of sutures. The first button includes a tubular wall that includes a proximal end portion and an opposed distal end portion that define a central longitudinal axis. An inner surface of the tubular wall defines an aperture aligned with the central longitudinal axis and an outer surface of the tubular wall includes threads. The plate defines at least one aperture that receives and connects with the first button. The set of sutures connect the first button and the second button. The set of sutures connect the first and second buttons.
