摘要：
Apparatus for securing a first object to a second object, the apparatus comprising:an elongated body having a distal end, a proximal end, and a lumen extending between the distal end and the proximal end, the lumen comprising a distal section and a proximal section, the distal section of the lumen having a wider diameter than the proximal section of the lumena window extending through the side wall of the elongated body and communicating with the lumen, the window being disposed in the vicinity of the intersection between the distal section of the lumen and the proximal section of the lumen and being sized to receive a first object thereinan elongated element extending through the lumen of the elongated body, the elongated element comprising a proximal end and a distal end anda locking element mounted to the distal end of the elongated element and disposed in the distal section of the lumenwhereby, when the elongated body is disposed in a second object, and a first object extends through the window, and the locking element is thereafter moved proximally, proximal movement of the locking element causes the elongated body to capture the first object to the elongated body, whereby to secure the first object to the second object.
