Systems and methods for repairing annulus defects include scaffold (30), attachment members (40), and anchors (20). The scaffold (30) acts as a plug to substantially fill the annulus defect. The anchors (20) are secured to tissue adjacent the annulus defect. The attachment member (40) secures the scaffold (30) to the anchors (2). Thus, the systems and methods for repairing annulus defects retain the scaffold within the annulus defect.
