Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0180751A1] Disclosed is a bone fixation device of the type useful for connecting soft tissue or tendon to bone or for connecting two or more bone fragments together. The device comprises an elongate body (24) having a distal anchor (34) thereon. A proximal anchor (36) is axially movably disposed with respect to the distal anchor, to accommodate different bone dimensions and permit appropriate tensioning of the fixation device.
