The device was returned to olympus for evaluation and the reported event was confirmed; the forceps channel port was found deformed.Other evaluation findings are as follows: the bending angle in the up direction did not meet the standard value due to wear of the angle wire; the light guide bundle was slipping down; the control unit was sticky due to water leakage; the upward/downward plate was also sticky; the image guide bundle was stained; and a foggy image occurred due to damage on the objective lens.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.It has been over three years since the subject device was manufactured.Based on the results of the investigation, the root cause of the damaged forceps port could not be determined.
