TENSIONABLE CONTRUCTS WITH MULTI-LIMB LOCKING MECHANISM THROUGH SINGLE SPLICE AND METHODS OF TISSUE REPAIR

摘要

Systems and methods for soft tissue to bone repairs, without knot tying. Soft tissue repair systems include self-cinching constructs with a fixation device, a flexible strand with multiple flexible limbs, and a shuttle/pull device attached to the flexible strand to shuttle the multiple flexible limbs through the flexible strand and form a locking splice.

主权项

1. A surgical construct for tissue repairs, comprising:
a tensionable construct comprising a flexible strand with a plurality of limbs, and a shuttling device attached to the flexible strand, wherein the shuttling device allows the plurality of limbs of the flexible strand to pass through the flexible strand and form a locking splice and multiple adjustable closed loops.
