When ligaments or tendons detach from associated bone, or become damaged by way of being torn, surgical intervention can be used to assist repair and reattachment (restoration). An anchor in the cortical portion of the bone is provided which is used to secure a suture with respect to the bone wherein the suture is attached at one end to a tendon or other portion of the body and the free end is secured to the anchor without the use of a knot. An arthroscopic transosseous knotless suture anchoring arrangement for holding a suture includes, a hollow body for at least partial insertion into a cortical portion of a hone and a holding dement having an elongate body sized for fitment with and within the hollow of the body for holding a suture located in the hollow body with respect to the cortical portion of the bone.
