Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for AC joint dislocation surgical repairs, without knot tying. The surgical systems include two fixation devices (for example, a button and an anchor) joined by strand of flexible material having a knotless, self-cinching, adjustable loop with two splices that attach to the two fixation devices. The knotless, adjustable loop/fixation devices allow for tensioning of the AC repair after the anchor implantation.
