发明名称 Apparatus and method for securing a graft ligament in a bone tunnel
摘要 Apparatus and method are disclosed for reconstructing a ligament. The method includes the steps of forming a first bone tunnel and a second bone tunnel transverse to, and intersecting one another; positioning a closed loop of a flexible member within the first bone tunnel and a portion of the second bone tunnel such that the closed loop extends out of the first bone tunnel and the second bone tunnel, parting the closed loop outside the second bone tunnel so as to create a first free end and a second free end, passing the second free end through the opposite end of the second bone tunnel, positioning the graft ligament over a portion of the flexible member extending out of the first opening; and pulling the flexible member so as to draw the graft ligament into the bone tunnel intersection.
