Cannulated suture and/or graft anchor

A method for treating instability of two boney structures, comprising:

• selecting a cannulated anchor including a body portion having an opening along a first axis, the body portion further including a cannulation extending in a second axis transverse to the first axis;
• positioning suture through the opening of the body portion;
• positioning a tendon graft through the opening of the body portion;
• installing a k-wire into two boney structures of a patient such that the k-wire is positioned through the tendon graft;
• generating a bone hole through the two boney structures guided by the k-wire;
• positioning the k-wire through the cannulation of the body portion and translating the cannulated anchor over the k-wire and into the bone hole using a cannulated inserter;
• and
• removing the cannulated inserter from the patient.

• displacing the suture to be offset from the second axis and disposed between the k-wire and a perimeter of the opening of the body portion;
• and
• removing the cannulated inserter from the patient.
