A method of providing ligamentory like support between two spaced locations in the body of a patient comprising fixing an anchor in each location, connecting the anchors by a filamentary element, adjusting the tension of the filamentary element between the locations to establish the desired spatial relationship between the locations to provide at least a supplementary ligamentory support between the locations. The anchor (115) comprising a base (153), a head (157) having a configuration to facilitate insertion of the head into tissue and retention of the head in the tissue once inserted, the base formed with an aperture (161) adapted to receive a length of a filamentary element (127) and permit slidable movement of the filamentary element through the aperture in one direction but to restrict movement of the filamentary element through the aperture in the opposite direction. A holder (189) to support the anchor to effect is fixation into the tissue and an insertion appliance (173) to support the holder and be used in applying the anchor to the tissue
L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de fournir un support de type ligamentaire entre deux emplacements espacés dans le corps du patient, qui consiste à fixer à chaque emplacement une ancre, à relier les ancres au moyen d'un élément filiforme, à régler la tension dudit élément entre lesdits emplacements de façon à établir la relation spatiale voulue entre ces emplacements pour produire entre eux au moins un support ligamentaire supplémentaire. L'ancre (115) comprend une base (153), une tête (157) dont la configuration facilite l'introduction dans les tissus et la retenue une fois introduite dans ces tissus, la base, qui comporte une ouverture (161) conçue pour loger une certaine longueur d'un élément filiforme (127) et permettre le déplacement coulissant de ce dernier à travers ladite ouverture dans une direction et empêcher son déplacement dans la direction opposée. Un dispositif de retenue (189) destiné à soutenir le dispositif d'ancrage assure la fixation dans le tissu et un appareil d'introduction (173) destiné à supporter le dispositif de retenue sert à appliquer l'ancre au tissu.
