The suture anchor comprises a first main body (11) of a generally cylindrical shape having a front portion (1), a rear portion (2), a longitudinal axis (3), a curved surface (4) with protrusions (5), a central through-going bore (19) extending from said front portion (1) to said rear portion (2), and a longitudinal slit (12) which opens at said front portion (1) and curved surface (4) and is closed at said rear portion (2). It further comprises a second conical body (14) having a smaller base (15), a larger base (16), a curved surface (17) and a longitudinal axis (13), said second conical body (14) being coaxially introducible with its smaller base (15) into said slit (12) thereby causing expansion of said first main body (11). The second conical body (14) is provided with a through-hole (6) running transversely to said longitudinal axis (13) and two channels (7) positioned on said curved surface (17) and extending from the orifices (18) of said through-hole (6) to said smaller base (15).
L'ancrage de suture comprend un premier corps principal (11) de forme généralement cylindrique ayant une partie avant (1), une partie arrière (2), un axe longitudinal (3), une surface courbe (4) avec des saillies (5), un trou central traversant (19) s'étendant de ladite partie avant (1) à ladite partie arrière (2), et une fente longitudinale (12) qui s'ouvre à ladite partie avant (1) et se ferme à ladite partie arrière (2). Il comprend aussi un deuxième corps conique (14) ayant une base plus petite (15), une base plus grande (16), une surface courbe (17) et un axe longitudinal (13), ledit deuxième corps conique (14) étant introductible coaxialement avec sa base plus petite (15) dans ladite fente (12), ce qui cause l'expansion dudit premier corps (11). Le deuxième corps conique (14) comporte un trou traversant (6) orienté transversalement par rapport audit axe longitudinal (13) et deux canaux (7) placés sur ladite surface courbe (17) et s'étendant des orifices (18) dudit trou traversant (6) à ladite base plus petite (15).
