Abstract
The object of the invention is an implantable system (16) for anchoring stitching threads (2) within a bone tunnel (3), said system comprising an implantable device (1) and a complementary piece (17), the said device being formed by a single piece produced from bioresorbable material, and comprises: a sheath (4) arranged so as to receive at least one stitching thread (2); and a head (5) disposed at a proximal end (6) of the said sheath (4) and extending radially from the external wall (7) thereof: the said piece being intended to be introduced into the sheath (4), so as, in a first position, to leave free the movement of the stitching threads (2) inside the sheath (4) and, in a second position, be able to block this movement.
