The inventive equipment comprises a link (3) and elements (5) which are used to stop the link (3) in relation to the fragments of tissue to be repaired. According to the invention: (i) one of the aforementioned stop elements comprises a bone screw (2) which can be implanted in a bone surrounding the tissue to be repaired, for example in the calcaneum in order to repair the calcanean tendon; (ii) the above-mentioned link (3) forms a tubular part (6) in which one part of the screw (2) can be tightly inserted along with at least two cords (4) which can be inserted through the fragments of the biological tissue to be repaired, for example the two fragments of a broken calcanean tendon; and (iii) other stop elements comprise at least two stop buttons (5).
Ce matériel comprend un lien (3) et des organes (5) d'arrêt du lien (3) par rapport à aux fragments de tissu à réparer.Selon l'invention,- l'un des organes d'arrêt est constitué par une vis osseuse (2) pouvant être implantée dans un os environnant le tissu à réparer, notamment dans le calcanéum pour la réparation du tendon calcanéen ;- le lien (3) forme une partie tubulaire (6) propre à recevoir étroitement une partie de la vis (2) en elle ainsi qu'au moins deux cordons (4) insérables au travers des fragments du tissu biologique à réparer, notamment les deux fragments d'un tendon calcanéen rompu, et- d'autres organes d'arrêt sont constitués par au moins deux boutons d'arrêt (5).
