This disclosure presents methods for treating a defect in soft tissue of a patient. The methods employ fixation delivery apparatuses and fixation apparatuses positioned, at least in part, in or on the soft tissue to be repaired. In some aspects, these techniques include the use of this includes a fixation apparatus that includes at least one bone anchor connected to at least one tissue anchor by a shortenable elongate member.
1. An orthopedic repair method for re-approximating a defect in tissue of a patient, the method comprising: inserting a bone anchor into a bone that is contiguous to tissue having a defect to be repaired, wherein the bone anchor is coupled to a shortenable elongate member;disposing a portion of the
1. An orthopedic repair method for re-approximating a defect in tissue of a patient, the method comprising: inserting a bone anchor into a bone that is contiguous to tissue having a defect to be repaired, wherein the bone anchor is coupled to a shortenable elongate member;disposing a portion of the elongate member proximate to the defect in the tissue;providing a fixation device having a first member, a second member, and a connecting element therebetween;placing the first member of the fixation device into the tissue on a first side of the portion of the elongate member disposed proximate to the defect in the tissue;placing the second member of the fixation device into the tissue on a second side of the portion of the elongate member disposed proximate to the defect in the tissue so that the connecting element between the first member and the second member extends across the portion of the elongate member disposed proximate to the defect in the tissue;after the second member is placed, shortening a length of the connecting element between the first member and second member; andshortening the elongate member to an extent sufficient to cause the connecting element between the first member and the second member to be drawn in tension to pull, wholly or partially, the tissue toward the bone anchor positioned within the bone. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the placing steps occur simultaneously. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the bone anchor comprises a bone screw, a T-anchor, a barb, an expandable element or an adhesive. 4. A method for repair of a defect in patient tissue, the method comprising: inserting a bone anchor having a shortenable elongate member attached thereto into a bone that is contiguous to tissue having a defect to be repaired;aligning a portion of the elongate member proximate to the defect;inserting a first anchor member having a first elongate element attached thereto into the tissue on a first side of the portion of the elongate member;inserting a second anchor member having a second elongate element attached thereto into the tissue on a second side of the portion of the elongate member opposite the first side;providing an adjustable coupling that extends over the portion of the elongate member between the first elongate element of the first anchor member and the second elongate element of the second anchor member;applying tension to the coupling between the first and second elongate elements thereby shortening a length of the coupling; andshortening a length of the elongate member between the bone anchor and the coupling. 5. The method of claim 4, and further comprising inserting a third anchor member having a third elongate element attached thereto into the tissue at a location spaced from the insertion locations of the first and second anchor members, wherein the adjustable coupling also extends to the third elongate element; andprior to the step of shortening the length of the elongate member, applying tension to the coupling between the first, second and third elongate elements. 6. The method of claim 4, wherein the step of inserting the first anchor member further comprises disposing the first anchor member proximate to the defect in the tissue. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the step of inserting the second anchor member further comprises disposing the second anchor member proximate to the defect in the tissue. 8. The method of claim 4, wherein the first anchor and second anchor inserting steps occur simultaneously. 9. The method of claim 4, wherein the bone anchor comprises a bone screw, a T-anchor, a barb, an expandable element or an adhesive. 10. A method for repair of a defect in patient tissue, the method comprising: inserting a bone anchor having a shortenable elongate member attached thereto into a bone that is contiguous to tissue having a defect to be repaired;aligning a portion of the elongate member proximate to the defect;inserting a first anchor member having a first elongate element attached thereto into the tissue on one side of the portion of the elongate member;inserting a second anchor member having a second elongate element attached thereto into the tissue on the other side of the portion of the elongate member;providing a coupling that extends over the portion of the elongate member between the first elongate element of the first anchor member and the second elongate element of the second anchor member, wherein the coupling comprises a loop; andshortening a length of the elongate member between the bone anchor and the coupling. 11. The method of claim 10, and further comprising shortening a length of the coupling that extends over the portion of the elongate member between the first anchor member and second anchor member. 12. The method of claim 10, and further comprising inserting a third anchor member having a third elongate element attached thereto into the tissue at a location spaced from the insertion locations of the first and second anchor members, wherein the coupling also extends to the third elongate element. 13. The method of claim 12, and further comprising shortening a length of the coupling that extends over the portion of the elongate member, after the first, second and third anchor inserting steps. 14. The method of claim 10, wherein the step of inserting the first anchor member further comprises disposing the first anchor member proximate to the defect in the tissue. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the step of inserting the second anchor member further comprises disposing the second anchor member proximate to the defect in the tissue. 16. The method of claim 10, wherein the first anchor member is inserted before the second anchor member. 17. The method of claim 10, wherein the first anchor and second anchor inserting steps occur simultaneously. 18. The method of claim 10, wherein the bone anchor comprises a bone screw, a T-anchor, a barb, an expandable element or an adhesive.
