Abstract
A soft tissue repair method. The method includes providing a flaccid tubular member having a longitudinal bore and first and second ends, the tubular member defining first and second portions integral with the tubular member. The method includes coupling the tubular member to a flexible strand, inserting the tubular member from a first side of the soft tissue to a second side of soft tissue, such that a first portion of the tubular member exits the second side of the soft tissue and a second portion of the tubular member remains inside the soft tissue, tensioning the flexible strand, deforming the first portion of the tubular member to an anchoring shape, and forming a vascularization conduit from the second portion of the tubular member.
