Abstract: Provided herein are ligament docking implants and methods for making and using the same. In at least one embodiment, the implants include at least one docking recess configured to receive a tissue structure such as a ligament and connect said tissue to the implant via suitable surgical techniques. In at least one embodiment, the docking recesses of the implant include a gyroid architecture that provides for improved mechanical performance and tissue integration. In various embodiments, the present methods of using the ligament docking implants include the use of sutures to connect tissue to the implant via the docking recess.

Abstract: The present invention provides fastener anchoring devices with protruding fasteners releasably attached to graspers for insertion into a target site such as soft tissue. The devices include a retaining mechanism that can be actuated to release the fasteners from the grasper. The devices can include support material preloaded onto the fasteners.

Abstract: The present invention provides scaffold and suture anchoring devices for anchoring scaffolds and sutures into a target site such as soft tissue. The devices include a retainer mechanism that holds the scaffolds in a grasper and can be actuated to release the scaffolds from the grasper. The devices include retractable needles that can be actuated to pass suture threads through the grasper to anchor scaffolds to a target site.
