A suture anchor (10) for securing soft tissue to bone including a body extending along a longitudinal axis between opposite ends, and at least one eyelet (12) extending between lateral surfaces of the body for receiving a suture. The eyelet (12) defines two entry/exit void regions (16) and a central void region (14) extending between the entry/exit void regions (16). Each entry/exit void region (16) extends from one of the lateral surfaces of the body and has an axis forming an acute angle with the longitudinal axis of the body. Each entry/exit void region (16) also has a surface comprising a segment of a conic surface extending about the axis of the entry/exit void region and tapering inward towards the longitudinal axis of the body. The central void region extends along an axis transverse to the longitudinal axis of the body.

L'invention concerne un ancrage de suture destinée à fixer des tissus mous à un os. L'ancrage comprend un corps s'étendant le long d'un axe longitudinal entre des extrémités opposées, et au moins un oeillet s'étendant entre des surfaces latérales du corps pour recevoir une suture. L'oeillet définit deux régions de vide entrée/sortie et une région centrale de vide s'étendant entre les régions de vide entrée/sortie. Chaque région de vide entrée/sortie s'étend d'une des surfaces latérales du corps et possède un axe formant un angle aigu avec l'axe longitudinal du corps. Chaque région de vide entrée/sortie présente également une surface comprenant un segment d'une surface conique s'étendant autour de l'axe de la région de vide entrée/sortie et s'effilant vers l'intérieur en direction de l'axe longitudinal du corps. La région centrale de vide s'étend le long d'un axe transversal à l'axe longitudinal du corps.
