TISSUE GRAFT ANCHORING

摘要

A fixation device includes a member (26), a woven material (90, 112) attached to the member, and suture (118) extending through the woven material and including free regions for securing the woven material to a tissue graft. A method of securing a tissue graft includes providing a fixation member having a woven material attached thereto and suture extending through the woven material; determining a desired distance between the fixation member and a tissue graft; and attaching the woven material to the tissue graft using the suture at a position to obtain the desired distance.
