Surgical construct with adjustable loops and sliding knot

A surgical construct for tissue reconstruction, comprising:

• a single suture tape comprising,
• a first segment, a second segment, and opposite first and second free ends corresponding to the first and second segments, respectively, the first segment forming a first adjustable loop and the second segment forming a second adjustable loop, each of the first and second adjustable loops having a continuous loop portion, and
• a sliding knot coupling the first and second segments and terminating the continuous loop portions, the sliding knot being configured to slidably receive the first and second free ends,
• wherein the first and second adjustable loops are individually adjustable independent of one another by sliding the first and second free ends through the sliding knot.

A method of tissue reconstruction, comprising the steps of:

• advancing a surgical construct in a first direction through first and second tissues, the surgical construct being formed of a flexible strand comprising first and second interlocked adjustable loops, a sliding knot, and first and second free ends slidable through the sliding knot;
• pulling the surgical construct in a second direction opposite the first direction at the first and second free ends thereof such that a fixation device coupled to the first and second adjustable loops engages the first tissue and closing a separation between the first and second tissues;
• and
• tensioning the surgical construct by pulling on the free ends to reduce the first and second adjustable loops and secure the first and second tissues together.
