| 20110054524 | IMPLANTABLE PROSTHETIC CORD - A medical cord and surgical procedure for the connection of a first tissue site to a second tissue site. The cord comprises a main length having a width and end portions having respective widths being less than the width of the main length. This provides a medical cord that is easy to manipulate during surgical procedures in which the cord may be required to be threaded through apertures and tunnels. The cord is particularly suitable to attach soft tissue, including ligaments and tendons to bone anchorsites and provides a prosthetic scaffold to facilitate tissue ingrowth at the repair site. | 03-03-2011 |
