摘要 |
Surgical staples and annulus closure tools, used in methods of repairing torn body tissue, implementing inter-vertebral disk surgery, sealing an inter-vertebral disk incision, preventing or inhibiting disk herniation, and/or stimulating or facilitating healing of an inter-vertebral disk; have two, three or four legs attached by connecting members. The legs optionally have projections protruding therefrom to restrict motion of the staple relative to the body tissue, and said projections may be angled to restrict motion in any desired direction.
