Abstract
A magnetic suture loop comprising a suture magnet, a bifurcated suture, and a cartridge tube is disclosed. The bifurcated suture extends from the suture magnet and forms a suture loop. The cartridge tube comprises a cartridge tube proximal end, a cartridge tube distal end, and a cartridge tube wall extending therebetween. The cartridge tube has a cartridge tube proximal opening at the cartridge tube proximal end, a cartridge tube distal opening at the cartridge tube distal end, and a cartridge tube lumen extending from the cartridge tube proximal opening to the cartridge tube distal opening. The suture loop traverses the cartridge tube lumen based on having been inserted through the cartridge tube distal opening. The suture magnet is disposed outside of the cartridge tube lumen adjacent the cartridge tube distal opening.
