Apparatus and a method for attaching soft tissue to bone in a surgical operation, particularly in suturing a portion of a shoulder joint socket to the rim of the glenoid cavity of a scapula. A drilling guide includes a pair of convergent tubes and a handle supporting them, and a locater rod is used to aid in holding the drilling guide so that intersecting holes can be drilled from opposite sides of the glenoid rim. A suture is pushed into one of the intersecting holes and pulled out from the other using a double hook to anchor a suture to the glenoid rim. |
