Abstract
A suture anchor system comprising an anchor and an insert, and methods of use are provided. The anchor body has proximal and distal ends, and opposite first and second lateral sides extending between the proximal end and the distal end. A suture passage comprising a proximal surface and a distal surface extends through the anchor body from a first opening in the first lateral side to a second opening in the second lateral side. A channel extends along a longitudinal axis of the anchor body from a proximal opening in the proximal end of the anchor body to a distal opening in the proximal surface of the suture passage. The channel does not extend past the distal surface of the suture passage. The insert is configured to translate longitudinally within the channel between the proximal end of the anchor body and the distal surface of the suture passage.
