Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a soft tissue graft anchor (10). The anchor includes a plurality of prongs (10a), each prong including a distal end and a proximal end, wherein the prongs are coupled at their distal ends to form an inner cavity (1Od) having an opening, at least one of the prongs including a fin (1Of ), the fin extending perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the prong and including a pointed end (1Og). A tissue graft anchor assembly, a method for tissue repaxr, and instrumentation for use therewith are also disclosed.
