A system for securing suture to tissue, the system comprising: - a suture; - at least one anchor for securing the suture to tissue, wherein the anchor comprises - an elongated body of generally cylindrical shape having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end having a distal slot on a top side of the elongated body extending proximally into the elongated body, and the proximal end having a proximal slot on the top side of the elongated body extending distally into the elongated body, the distal slot being aligned with the proximal slot; - the distal slot comprising a wider section and a narrower section, wherein the wider section has a width such that the suture is slidably accommodated therein and the narrower section has a width such that the suture is bound therein, and further wherein the wider section is disposed distally of the narrower section; - and, on a bottom side of the elongated body diametrically opposed to the top side of the elongated body, a recess, which communicates with the wider section of the distal slot, the narrower section of the distal slot and the proximal slot, wherein said recess is diametrically opposed to the distal slot and proximal slot. - a suture; - at least one anchor for securing the suture to tissue, wherein the anchor comprises - an elongated body of generally cylindrical shape having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end having a distal slot on a top side of the elongated body extending proximally into the elongated body, and the proximal end having a proximal slot on the top side of the elongated body extending distally into the elongated body, the distal slot being aligned with the proximal slot; - the distal slot comprising a wider section and a narrower section, wherein the wider section has a width such that the suture is slidably accommodated therein and the narrower section has a width such that the suture is bound therein, and further wherein the wider section is disposed distally of the narrower section; - and, on a bottom side of the elongated body diametrically opposed to the top side of the elongated body, a recess, which communicates with the wider section of the distal slot, the narrower section of the distal slot and the proximal slot, wherein said recess is diametrically opposed to the distal slot and proximal slot. - an elongated body of generally cylindrical shape having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end having a distal slot on a top side of the elongated body extending proximally into the elongated body, and the proximal end having a proximal slot on the top side of the elongated body extending distally into the elongated body, the distal slot being aligned with the proximal slot; - the distal slot comprising a wider section and a narrower section, wherein the wider section has a width such that the suture is slidably accommodated therein and the narrower section has a width such that the suture is bound therein, and further wherein the wider section is disposed distally of the narrower section; - and, on a bottom side of the elongated body diametrically opposed to the top side of the elongated body, a recess, which communicates with the wider section of the distal slot, the narrower section of the distal slot and the proximal slot, wherein said recess is diametrically opposed to the distal slot and proximal slot.
