ABSTRACT:
A method of fastening biological tissues using a fastener having two opposing heads joined by a connector. The fastener is installed by driving the heads through needles having a slotted bore. The needles are pierced through the tissues and rods are then used to drive the heads through the needle bores. The needles are removed and the heads then move against the tissue surface. The connector draws the heads inward against the tissue. The heads are provided with recesses to securely receive the rods.
