    摘要: An adjustable fixation system for coupling a tissue or graft to bone is disclosed including a suture construct including a first limb, a second limb and a body therebetween. The body is continuously braided with the first and second limbs and has a longitudinal passage therethrough. The first and second limbs define a braided portion including a braided core. The suture construct is configured to form at least one adjustable loop formed by passing the first limb between braids of the suture construct, along the longitudinal passage and back out between braids of the adjustable suture construct. Tension on at least one of the first or second limbs reduces a diameter of the longitudinal passage around a length of the first limb and thereby the braided core disposed along the body longitudinal passage and knotlessly locks the adjustable loop.
