Visual aid for identifying suture limbs arthroscopically

A flexible suture construct, comprising:

• a first suture limb and a second suture limb, the first and second suture limbs each including a braided suture portion that is composed of a plurality of suture strands braided together to define an outer suture wall and a hollow core, wherein the first suture limb includes a first aperture extending through its outer suture wall and into its hollow core, and the second suture limb includes a second aperture extending through its outer suture wall and into its hollow core, and wherein a first section of the first suture limb extends through the second aperture and into the hollow core of the second suture limb, and a first section of the second suture limb extends through the first aperture and into the hollow core of the first suture limb.

A flexible suture construct, comprising:

• a first suture limb and a second suture limb, the first and second suture limbs each including a braided suture portion that is composed of a plurality of suture strands braided together to define an outer suture wall and a hollow core, wherein the first suture limb is locked within the hollow core of the second suture limb, and the second suture limb is locked within the hollow core of the first suture limb.

A flexible suture construct, comprising:

• a first suture limb and a second suture limb, the first and second suture limbs each including a braided suture portion that is composed of a plurality of suture strands braided together to define an outer suture wall and a hollow core, wherein the first suture limb is locked within the hollow core of the second suture limb, and the second suture limb is locked within the hollow core of the first suture limb, and wherein the first and/or second suture limb includes a visual identifier characteristic configured to allow a medical professional to visually distinguish between the first and second suture limbs.
