    摘要: An implant assembly for use in tissue repairs includes a fixation device and a flexible elongate implant. The fixation device has a body with a first surface adapted to face towards a bone and a second surface adapted to face away from the bone. Apertures extend through the fixation device body from the first surface to the second surface and serve to attach one end of the flexible elongate implant loop. The flexible elongate implant has a multifilament structure comprising filaments which are of a metallic or non-metallic material. The implant is coupled to the fixation device by passing through the apertures, and has a loop having a first end that is secured to the fixation device and a second end which can be releasably coupled to the fixation device following passage through or around a bone, for securing the implant assembly relative to the bone.

    摘要: An assembly for use in repairing a severed tendon comprises an elongate threading element adapted to transit along a lumen of a tendon sheath, for covering a curved needle and carrying the needle within the lumen. The assembly can also comprise a liner for lining an internal surface of the tendon sheath, defining an internal passage along which a tendon stump coupled to the curved needle can pass. The liner can have a collapsed, rest configuration in which it is adapted to be inserted into the lumen of the tendon sheath, and an expanded, operating configuration, the liner being movable to the expanded configuration by contact with the tendon stump. Once released from the liner, the threading element receives the curved needle, for covering and carrying the curved needle through the liner and along the lumen of the tendon sheath trailing the connected tendon stump.
