Abstract
An orthopedic stabilization device is provided having a first button, a second button and a suture extending therebetween. The first button has a base portion and a depending loop having an elongated loop opening therethrough. A locking member extends through the elongated loop opening and is retained with the loop when in a retained orientation and insertable or removable when in an unretained orientation. A portion of the suture is frictionally retainable between the locking member and the loop to thereby tie the first button to the second button when the locking member is in a clamping position.
