Abstract

A suture anchor (10) for securing soft tissue to bone, including a body (12) and a continuous suture loop (30). The body extends along a longitudinal axis between opposing first and second ends, and has an external threaded portion (18) extending coaxial with the axis, and a bore (24) extending from the second end towards the first end. The continuous suture loop is secured within the bore of the body so that at least a portion of the loop extends from the second end of the body to form an eyelet.
