Embodiment Construction

[0049] Aspects of the invention and some of its features, advantages and details are explained more fully below with reference to non-limiting examples shown in the accompanying drawings. Descriptions of well-known structures are omitted so as not to unnecessarily obscure the invention in detail. It should be understood, however, that the detailed description and specific non-limiting examples, while indicating aspects of the invention, are given by way of illustration only and not of limitation. Various alternatives, modifications, additions and / or arrangements within the spirit and / or scope of the basic concept of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this disclosure.

[0050] By way of brief background, the term suture anchor, as used herein, may include soft suture anchors. Soft suture anchors are formed from filaments of suture material that are retained within a pre-formed bone hole by being deformable to increase its diameter to a size gre...

Abstract

A knotless instability anchor having an anchor having a first side and a second side with a suture material passing therethrough from the first side to the second side. The suture material has an adjustable loop extending from the first side of the anchor and a first limb and a second limb extending from the second side of the anchor. A splice is formed in the first limb between a first end of thefirst limb and the anchor. A self-collapsing loop is formed in the first limb between the first end and the splice. The second limb extends through the splice in the first limb.

Description

[0001] This application is related to and claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 586,383, filed November 15, 2017. technical field [0002] The present disclosure relates generally to a suture anchor device for soft tissue-to-bone repair procedures, and more particularly, to a knotless unstable anchor having a sliding configuration for tissue tensioning and a A joint where tissue is held in place relative to bone. Background technique [0003] Suture anchors are commonly used in surgical repair of soft tissue to bone. Typically, they are inserted into pre-formed holes, and the sutures are threaded through the tissue to be repaired. In many cases, a sliding knot is tied, allowing better control of tissue tension as the surgeon manipulates the sliding knot to appose the tissue to the bone. In doing so, the tissue is naturally brought back to the origin of the suture and stops directly over the pre-formed hole or pilot hole. To secure the sliding knot, the ...
