  • Patent number: 11951232
    Abstract: One aspect of the present disclosure can include a biocompatible tissue graft. The graft can include an extracellular matrix (ECM) patch or strip and at least one fiber stitched into the ECM patch or strip in a peripheral reinforcement pattern. The at least one fiber can have opposing terminal ends. The at least one fiber can mitigate tearing and/or improve fixation retention of the ECM patch or strip. The at least one fiber can comprise a plurality of interconnected stitches. The opposing terminal ends of the at least one fiber can be stitched together to form a continuous stitching construction.

  • Patent number: 11219448
    Abstract: Embodiments of systems and methods for fixing soft tissue are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, soft tissue may be fixed to an attachment surface (such as bone, other soft tissue, other implants, or allograft or xenograft materials) by providing a helical suture in the soft tissue, wherein the soft tissue has a longitudinal axis along which the soft tissue undergoes tension under normal physiological conditions, and wherein a longitudinal axis of the helical suture in the soft tissue is oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis of the soft tissue; and securing the helical suture to an attachment surface.
