A filament-guiding device directs a filament to spool over a rotating device within tissue. The filament-guiding device has both closed and open positions. In the closed position, the filament-guiding device is resiliently straightened for delivering into tissue. Within tissue, the filament-guiding device resumes a curved configuration in the open position to orient the filament perpendicular to the rotating device for spooling. The spooled filament is deployed by withdrawing the rotating device and filament-guiding device to bulk and repair the tissue.

Dispositif de guidage de filament conçu pour guider un filament de manière à l'enrouler sur un dispositif rotatif à l'intérieur d'un tissu. Le dispositif de guidage de filament présente une position fermée et une position ouverte. Dans la position fermée, le dispositif de guidage de filament est redressé élastiquement pour être introduit dans le tissu. Une fois à l'intérieur du tissu, le dispositif de guidage de filament reprend une configuration incurvée dans la position ouverte afin d'orienter le filament perpendiculairement au dispositif rotatif en vue de l'enrouler. Le filament enroulé est déployé par extraction du dispositif rotatif et du dispositif de guidage de filament afin de gonfler et de réparer le tissu.
