Abstract
A surgical guidewire device includes an outer tube and a guide needle. The outer tube has a needle tip formed at a tube distal end of the outer tube. The guide needle is movably disposed in the outer tube and has a needle eye structure. When the surgical guidewire device is in use, a suture extends through the needle eye structure, and is carried through the outer tube along with the needle eye structure as the guide needle is moved relatively toward the tube distal end and then away from the outer tube.
