An anchor assembly for autologous or artificial tendons grafts comprises an insertion element with a stem and an aperture-containing head proximal to the stem. The aperture is sufficiently large to receive autologous tendons grafts such as semitendinosus tendon or artificial tendons. The assembly also comprises a stabilizing element adapted to be embedded in bone. The stabilizing element comprises a sleeve with a cavity, which can be an elongated axial channel, arranged to receive and hold the insertion element stem. The insertion element can be tapped into the stabilizing element or the insertion element can be modified to include a structure such as a hole, barb, slot or hook by which the insertion element can be pulled into the stabilizing element. |
