摘要

A suture anchor for anchoring a suture to bone, the suture anchor comprising: an elongated body having a distal end surface, a proximal end surface, an exterior sidewall extending between the distal end surface and the proximal end surface, and an interior passageway extending between the distal end surface and the proximal end surface; and an actuator comprising a distal end, a proximal end and a shaft extending between the distal end and the proximal end, the distal end of the actuator comprising a suture retainer mechanism movably disposed relative to the elongated body.
