Abstract

An anchor assembly includes an elongate and flexible anchoring implant for inserting into a bore of bone or tissue, the implant having proximal and distal ends with sidewalls extending therebetween, a suture having: first and second segments between the proximal and distal ends of the implant and passed through a first and second side wall portions of the implant, respectively. A bridging loop between the two segments, and at or adjacent an in-use upper portion of the implant that includes the proximal end; wherein each of the segments has respective terminal ends of the suture extending from the implant. Applying tension to the terminal ends, when implant is in bone or tissue, causes the proximal end to be drawn towards the distal end to effect change of the implant shape from elongate and radially narrow into axially shortened and radially extended configurations to deploy the implant in the bore.
