Content

Advantageously, the drive feature 1092 of the driver 1080 and the drive recess 790 of the interference member 770 can be used both to insert, or drive, the interference member 770 axially into the anchor body 702 and to extract, remove, or back-out the interference member 770 from the anchor body 702. The ability to back the interference member 770 out of the anchor body 702 may be useful to a surgeon who desires to adjust tension in the one or more sutures 1034, remove the suture anchor 700, reposition the suture anchor 700, reconfigure or remove the one or more sutures 1034, or the like. This added flexibility can increase the options to a surgeon using the suture anchor 700 and can lead to move favorable surgical outcomes.
