Abstract
Tensionable knotless tissue repair systems and methods are provided for reducing and fixating tissue to bone. The proposed systems and methods may utilize one or more soft suture staple assemblies and one or more knotless suture anchors for reducing and fixating tissue to bone. The soft suture staple assemblies and knotless suture anchors may be used as part of a multi-row fixation technique for providing a desired area of footprint compression over top of the tissue.
