Abstract

See full text

An attachment method to hold a biomaterial in place until healing occurs. The method consists of anchoring sutures through the subchondral plate into bony tissue with at least two lines emerging from the surface. The anchored suture lines are then pulled through the implant at its four quadrants, and is thus used to secure the cartilage repair material into the wound site.
