A surgical fastener apparatus, for securing a surgical mesh material to body tissue including a pair of anchors each having retaining means formed on an outer surface thereof; and a suture tether interconnecting the pair of anchors to one another. The pair of anchors having a substantially cylindrical body having a conically tapered distal end and a planar proximal end. The retaining means includes a series of semi-circular angled projections having a planar proximal surface and a tapered distal end, wherein a center of each of the angled projections is spaced a distance from a longitudinal central axis of the body portion. The surgical fastener is made from a bioasbsorbable material which reasorbs into said body tissue at an appropriate rate, such as for example, polyglycolic acid and polylactic acid.
Cette invention concerne un dispositif de fixation chirurgicale permettant de mettre en place un matériau chirurgical en filet sur des tissus, qui comprend une paire d'attaches, lesquelles comportent chacune un dispositif de fixation sur leur surface extérieure et un fil de suture reliant les deux attaches l'une à l'autre. Ces deux attaches comportent un corps sensiblement cylindrique avec une extrémité distale cylindrique et une extrémité proximale plate. Le dispositif de fixation présente une série de saillies biaises semi-circulaires avec une surface proximale plate et une extrémité distale biseautée, le centre de chacune des saillies obliques se trouvant à une certaine distance de l'axe central longitudinal de la partie corps. Cette fixation chirurgicale est faite d'un matériau bioabsorbable qui est résorbé dans le tissu corporel à un rythme approprié, et qui est fait d'acide polyglycolique et d'acide polylactique par exemple.
