Suture anchor
Suture anchors are disclosed having suture locking features able to lock multiple suture ends extending from a body tissue, such as from a bone tunnel, with a single device.
1. A suture anchor for securing first and second suture portions relative to a bone, the suture anchor comprising:
an elongated body defining a longitudinal axis extending between a first end and a second end;
a proximal portion having first suture securing means for securing the first suture portion; and
a distal portion having second suture securing means for securing the second suture portion, the first and second suture securing means being spaced apart relative to the longitudinal axis.
2. The suture anchor of claim 1 wherein the proximal portion is a proximal one half of the suture anchor and the distal portion is a distal one half of the suture anchor.
3. The suture anchor of claim 1 wherein the proximal portion is a proximal one third of the suture anchor and the distal portion is a distal two thirds of the suture anchor.
4. The suture anchor of claim 1 wherein the proximal portion is a proximal two thirds of the suture anchor and the distal portion is a distal one third of the suture anchor.
