Zusammenfassung:An anchor capable of being delivered in a delivery configuration and deployed through anatomical tissue with the use of a delivery device. Upon deployment, the anchor shifts into a deployment configuration with at least a distal anchor portion extending transverse to a medial portion of the anchor. The anchor is removable from the anatomical tissue with the use of a retrieval device which grasps a proximal end of the anchor and proximally retracts the anchor into a flexible tubular element to return the anchor to the delivery configuration.
