Abstract
A monolithic tissue screw fabricated of a single, unitary piece of material. The monolithic tissue screw has a helical coil portion and screw head portion with a driver aperture passing axially through the screw head portion and a co-axial with the helical coil portion such that a rotational torsional force applied by a mating driver to the driver aperture causes the helical coil portion to rotate about its axis. The helical coil portion engages tissue and draws the helical coil and the screw head portion into the tissue substantially only with the application of the rotational torsional force and substantially without an axial force applied to the tissue screw.
