This device is a resorbable suture anchor designed to attach soft tissue to bone. The resorbable fixation anchor is comprised of L-Lactide / Glycolide material. The poly L-Lactic/polyglycolic acid copolymer degrades by hydrolysis into L-lactic and glycolic acids. These hydrolytic products are then further degraded into carbon dioxide and water via the cellular Krebs cycle. The material and rarer degraged into carron anonial and o the predicate device, LactoSorb® L15 Soft Tissue Screw and Washer, K012572. The suture anchor measures 3.0mm in diameter and 9.0mm in length.

In addition, the body has two wings, that when deployed will flange outward into the bone. Upon deployment, the diameter at the flanged wings is 4mm. The head portion provides a means to drive the anchor in as well as to attach suture to the anchor. The anchor has an eyelet through the head portion to allow suture to pass through which will be used to fasten the tissue to bone. The device will be pre-loaded with any legally marketed, size 2 suture. Instrumentation is provided for proper use and placement of the device. MAILING ADDRESS 120. Box 587 Warsaw, IN 46581 0587 .
