Additional information was received 27nov2025.The coating of the wire guide was activated by hydration in sterile saline solution prior to removal from the holder following the usual protocol.During the initial advancement of the wire guide through the canal, slight resistance was observed.When the wire guide was partially withdrawn to check its condition, the tip was noted to be frayed.Therefore, the use of the device was suspended and replaced with a new wire guide.The damage to the tip was detected before the guide came into direct contact with the patient.There was no separation of any components inside the patient.Only the endoscope corresponding to the procedure was being used.
