Knotless tensionable suture construct for tissue reattachment

A method of tissue repair, comprising:

• mounting a fixation device to a bone;
• feeding a needle of a tensionable construct through a first securing element of the fixation device;
• after feeding the needle of the tensionable construct through the first securing element, pulling the tensionable construct through the first securing element until a knot of the tensionable construct is received against the fixation device;
• passing the needle through or around a soft tissue;
• securing an adjustable loop of the tensionable construct to a second securing element of the fixation device;
• and
• reducing a size of the adjustable loop to tension the soft tissue relative to the fixation device.

A method of tissue repair, comprising:

• mounting a bone plate to a bone;
• feeding a needle connected to a tensionable construct through an eyelet of the bone plate until a knot of the tensionable construct is anchored against the bone plate;
• passing the needle through or around a soft tissue;
• securing an adjustable loop of the tensionable construct to a screw that is secured to the bone plate, wherein the screw is received in an opening of the bone plate that is separate from the eyelet;
• and
• tensioning the soft tissue relative to the bone plate, wherein tensioning the soft tissue is performed by pulling a suture tail of the tensionable construct.
