| 20090112211 | Method of bone surgery - A method of bone surgery including drilling a first bore in a near cortex of the bone with a first drill bit. Then a second drill bit is passed though the first bore towards a far cortex of the bone, the second drill bit comprising a distal shaft portion and a proximal shaft portion, the distal shaft portion having a diameter less than a diameter of the proximal shaft portion such that a shoulder is defined between the distal and proximal shaft portions. Then a second bore is drilled in the far cortex of the bone with the distal shaft portion of the second drill bit whilst the second drill bit is received in the first bore. | 04-30-2009 |

| 20090012561 | Tissue Anchor - The invention provides a tissue anchor comprising a first portion and a second portion. At least one point is provided on the first portion and a resilient device is provided between the first and second portions. The one or more points on the first portion can be sharpened and capable of penetrating dense tissue. The resilient device biases the first and second portions apart from one another in order to urge them into a second open configuration. The first and second portions are movable to a closed delivery configuration. The first and second portions are urged towards one another against the bias of the resilient device in the closed delivery configuration. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20120041454 | TISSUE ANCHOR INSERTION SYSTEM - A tissue anchor insertion system for inserting a tissue anchor into a body tissue such as bone, comprising a cutting device having a sharp leading end to create an aperture in the bone for insertion of the tissue anchor therein. The cutting device is deployed through a sleeve which is a close fit with the cutting device. The distal end of the sleeve is typically configured to penetrate the tissue in which the tissue anchor is to be inserted. A tissue anchor is also deployed through the sleeve, after the sleeve is in position, on a delivery device configured to support the tissue anchor during its insertion into the tissue. Typically the leading end of the sleeve is embedded within the tissue when the tissue anchor emerges from the distal end during the insertion process, so the tissue anchor is not damaged by insertion through the tissue. | 02-16-2012 |
