titleOfInvention | Scissor action tendon anchor |
abstract | The present invention provides a tendon anchor for attaching a tendon to at least one bone without sutures within a bore drilled into at least one bone. The tendon anchor includes a first tendon anchor adapted for insertion into a bore of a first bone. The first tendon anchor has a channel provided therein for receiving and holding a central portion of a tendon during insertion and when in final position in the bore of the first bone. Opposite ends of the tendon extend out of the singular bore. A first securing mechanism (preferably a screw) which is associated with the first tendon anchor moves at least a part of the first tendon anchor radially outward to securely engage the first tendon anchor and the central portion of the tendon to the first bone by urging at least a part of the first tendon anchor against a cylindrical wall portion of said bore in said first bone. Thus, an anchor is provided without the need for sutures and the anchor may be inserted through a singular bore in the bone. In many cases, a second tendon anchor will also be utilized to attach the tendon to two different bones. |
