This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the investigation results, it is presumed that no foreign matter adhered to the bent part and the insertion part snake tube, and that the bent part and the insertion part snake tube melted and solidified due to the chemical attack, leading to this event.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
