摘要：
A combination of a surgical suture and a sutureanchor, comprising: I) asuture anchor, said anchorcomprising an anchor body and a suture mounting passagetherein and, II) a surgical suture, said suturecomprising, an inner core comprising at least one yarncomprised of at least one fiber, said fiber comprising abioabsorbable polymer and, an outer braided sheathcomprising a second yarn comprised of at least onenonabsorbable fiber and a third yarn comprising at leastone bioabsorbable fiber, wherein the second and thirdyarns are in intertwining contact, and wherein thebioabsorbable first and bioabsorbable third yarnscomprise a polymer prepared from lactone monomersselected from the group consisting of p-dioxanone,.epsilon.-caprolactone, glycolide, L(-)-lactide, D(+)-lactide,meso-lactide, trimethylene carbonate, and combinationsthereof, and wherein the nonabsorbable fiber comprisesultra high molecular weight polyethylene, and wherein thesuture comprises about 55 wt. % to about 70 wt. % ofbioabsorbable polymer, wherein the suture is mounted tothe suture mounting passage of the suture anchor.
