Abstract: This invention relates to a system and a method for affixing soft tissue to bones. The system for fixing soft tissue within a bone tunnel comprising a first fixation member having a proximal end and a distal end and a bore extending from said proximal end to said distal end, said first fixation member is adapted for insertion against a first portion of a soft tissue positioned within a bone tunnel, a second portion of said soft tissue emerging from said bone tunnel; a second fixation member adapted to engage said bore of said first fixation member, having means for restraining disengagement therewith and a proximal end; and a third fixation member adapted to engage said second portion of said soft tissue, having means for coupling onto said proximal end of said second fixation member and restraining disengagement therewith.
