Abstract
A filament-guiding device directs a filament to spool over a rotating device within tissue. The filament-guiding device has both closed and open positions. In the closed position, the filament-guiding device is resiliently straightened for delivering into tissue. Within tissue, the filament-guiding device resumes a curved configuration in the open position to orient the filament perpendicular to the rotating device for spooling. The spooled filament is deployed by withdrawing the rotating device and filament-guiding device to bulk and repair the tissue.
