Abstract
A suturing assembly includes a suture passing member formed with a lumen in which are disposed a suture holding element and a first puncture element. Both the first puncture element and the suture holding element include suture receiving portions. A second puncture element includes a suture receiving portion. The first puncture element and the suture holding element have a retracted position and a deployed position. In the deployed position, the distal end of the first puncture element and/or suture holding element bends and passes over the distal end of the second puncture element, and a space is formed between the first puncture element and the suture holding element. During movement from the deployed position back to the retracted position, the suture receiving portion of the first puncture element and/or suture holding element moves adjacent the suture receiving portion of the second puncture element.
