CA 2582229

A suture anchor (e.g. 100) for knotlessly securing nearby tissue to bone is formed from an anchor body (e.g. 101/102) that includes a mechanism for being securely anchored to the bone, an elongated suture puller (e.g. 122) extending through the anchor body with a proximal end for being pulled in a proximal direction by a surgeon and a distal end (e.g. 125) with a suitable mechanism for engaging suture (e.g. 127), suture (e.g. 132) carried by the engaging mechanism (e.g. 127) at the distal end (e.g. 125) of the elongated suture puller (e.g. 122), and a suture locking mechanism (e.g. 110) that substantially prevents the suture (e.g. 122) from moving in at least a first direction after being pulled into and through the anchor body (e.g. 101/102) by the elongated suture puller (e.g. 122).

L'invention concerne une ancre de suture (p. ex. 100) permettant de fixer sans noeud un tissu avoisinant à un os. L'ancre comprend un corps d'ancre (p. ex. 101/102) qui comprend un mécanisme destiné à être fixé fermement à l'os, un élément (p. ex. 122) de traction de suture allongé se déployant à travers le corps d'ancre, et qui comporte une extrémité proximale destinée à être tirée dans une direction proximale par un chirurgien, et une extrémité distale (p. ex. 125) qui comporte un mécanisme (p. ex. 127) approprié entrant en contact avec la suture, une suture (p. ex. 132) portée par ledit mécanisme (p. ex. 127) à l'extrémité distale (p. ex. 125) de l'élément (p. ex. 122) de traction de suture, et un mécanisme (p. ex. 110) de blocage de suture qui empêche sensiblement la suture (p. ex. 132) de se déplacer dans au moins une première direction, après que la suture a été tirée dans et à travers le corps d'ancrage (p. ex. 101/102) par l'élément (p. ex. 122) de traction.
