A method, system and apparatus for augmenting the surgical repair of soft
tissue injuries, in which a first end of a bridge member attaches to a
first portion of healthy tissue, and a second end of the bridge member
attaches to a second portion of healthy tissue. The bridge member (or
bridge members) used to augment the soft tissue repair may be
interconnected or function independently. Flexibility and elasticity of
the bridge member are determined by the situation and may be altered to
improve healing. The device may be used in arthroscopic procedures, and
may be manufactured in a variety of lengths, or may be manufactured one
length and be cut to the desired length, or otherwise altered to provide
an optimal length of the bridge member.
