Tissue graft anchor |
abstract |
The present disclosure relates to a method of fixating a tissue graft. The method includes creating a hole in bone; inserting a tissue graft into the hole; inserting a cannulated anchor into the hole, the anchor comprising threads on an outer surface of the anchor and a polymer material including shape memory qualities; and providing energy to the anchor to deform the anchor and fixate the anchor to the bone, wherein upon deformation of the anchor, the threads of the anchor are substantially reduced thereby increasing contact between the anchor and the tissue graft. Anchors are also disclosed. |
