#$%^&*AU2018201460A120180927.pdf#####ABSTRACT Methods and systems are provided for securing tissue to bone. A surgical system can include a driver having an opening extending through a side thereof, an elongate shaft, a suture anchor, and a dilator feature distal to the suture anchor. The elongate shaft extends through a lumen of the driver such that a distal portion of the elongate shaft extends distally from a distal driver feature of the driver, and a central shaft portion of the elongate shaft has a suture retaining feature extending therethrough that communicates with the opening of the driver. A suture can be passed through a lumen of the suture anchor such that suture's terminal end portions are passed along a suture retaining feature and extend through the opening. The driver is configured to drive the suture anchor distally towards the dilator feature and into bone and thereby secure the suture.REPLACEMENT SHEET Atty. Dkt.
