Device and method for repairing a tendon

Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to a device for repairing a tendon comprising two components transversely connected through means for regulating a distance, each component comprising a top portion (2, 4) and a bottom portion (8, 9), each of the bottom portion (8, 9) comprising two substantially parallel structures (10, 11, 14, 15) longitudinally positioned along a central axis (X-X′) of the device, wherein: the means for regulating a distance and the structures (10, 11, 14, 15) are in different planes; each of the structures closer to the axis X-X′ (10, 11) is longer than the structures further from the axis X-X′ (14, 15); and each of the structure (10, 11, 14, 15) comprises at least one aperture along an axis (Z-Z′) and at least one aperture along an axis (W-W′), wherein each aperture in the structure (14) has a correspondent aperture along the axis (Z-Z′) or an axis parallel to (Z-Z′) and in a same plane, in the structure (10, 11, 15).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
