Abstract: Technologies are disclosed for an implant device that may be configured to repair tissue. The device may include a distal end configured to be connectable to at least a first part of the tissue. The device may include a proximate end configured to be connectable to at least a second part of the tissue. The device may include a substrate configured to form a connection between the first part of the tissue and the second part of the tissue. The device may include a longitudinal axis that may extend between the distal end to the proximate end within the substrate. The device may include at least one preformed channel in the substrate. The device may include at least one suture preloaded at least partially within the at least one channel. The at least one preformed channel may be formed during and/or proximate to a formation of the device.

Abstract: A tissue repair system is disclosed, comprising a collagen implant designed for repair of tissues, including meniscal tears and rotator cuffs, formed from self-assembled collagen fibers without cross-linking agents. The implant is absorbent and has structural integrity for suture securement. It is delivered through a specialized device, with sutures for securement. A delivery device, suture passer, and syringe are integral components of the system. The method involves accessing the tissue site, securing sutures, positioning and securing the implant, and injecting blood for tissue repair. The system and method facilitate tissue regeneration and repair in a minimally invasive manner, allowing for the growth of healthy tissue at the injury site, particularly for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscus repair.

Abstract: An arthroscopic system for the repair of a ruptured ligament is provided. Aspects of the invention include a scaffold surrounding a graft and attached by a suture to an fixation device and inserted into a repair site via arthroscopic equipment. The scaffold, the graft, and suture are further secured near or at the repair site via arthroscopic equipment having an elongated delivery member that contains the scaffold, graft, and suture prior to inserting the scaffold, graft, and suture into the repair site.

Abstract: A system for the repair of a ruptured tissue is provided. Aspects of the invention include a repair device comprising a combination of a scaffold and graft attached by one or more sutures to one or more fixation devices and inserted into a repair site via arthroscopic equipment or an open surgical procedure. The system may be used to treat tissue injuries including ruptured ligaments, tendons, and cartilage.

Abstract: Methods and system for the repair of a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament using a femoral attachment are provided. Aspects of the invention include a scaffold attached by a suture to an fixation device. The fixation device and suture are secured to a femur and not to a tibia near or at the repair site.

Abstract: A method for coupling a body conduit to tissue includes engaging an implant about an outer surface of a catheter. The implant receives a bioactive agent having tissue growth properties. The method involves inserting the catheter through the body conduit and into a tissue opening across a resected area, positioning the implant in the resected area, inflating a balloon to anchor the catheter within the tissue opening such that the implant bridges the body conduit and the tissue opening across the resected area, and maintaining the catheter and the implant in vivo to enable the bioactive agent to secure the implant in the resected area to permanently bridge the body conduit and the tissue opening.
