Provided herein are sutures for use in a procedure applied to tissue, and methods for forming such sutures. Some sutures include bi-directional retainers, each of which can be deployed in two directions, but once deployed in one direction, resist motion in the opposite direction. Other sutures include uni-directional retainers that are conical in shape, and include tissue en-gaging protrusions that extend from edges and/or angled walls of the conical retainers.

Linvention concerne des sutures destinées à être utilisées dans une procédure appliquée à un tissu, ainsi que des méthodes de formation de sutures. Certaines sutures comprennent des éléments de retenue bidirectionnels, chaque élément pouvant être déployé dans deux directions et, une fois déployé dans une direction, opposer une résistance à un mouvement dans la direction opposée. Dautres sutures comprennent des éléments de retenue unidirectionnels de forme conique, des éléments saillants de contact avec le tissu sétendant des bords et/ou des parois à angles de ces éléments de retenue coniques.
