Soft tissue anchor |
abstract |
A preassembled disposable driver (10) and suture anchor (16) are provided for threaded engagement into a bone to provide an attachment point for soft tissue. The anchor (16) is formed to have an externally threaded body portion (50) for engaging the bone, a distal end portion (43), and a head (30). A suture (20) is attached to said anchor (16) having free ends extending outwardly from a bone opening (90). A distal end portion (12) of the driver (10) is radially enlarged relative to the body portion (50) of the anchor (16) to engage the bone surrounding the mouth of the opening (90) to limit the internal advancement of the driver (10) such that further rotation and threading of the anchor (16) into the bone by the driver (10) will separate the anchor (16) from the driver (10). |
