This supplemental report is being submitted to provide additional information.The subject device in this report was returned to olympus medical systems corp.(omsc) for evaluation.Omsc took a look at the angle wire that moves the bending section and confirmed that the movement of the angle wire was restricted due to the deformed coil pile that covers the angle wire.It is surmised that the coil pipe was deformed because an excessive compressive force was applied to the angle wire during the angulation operation.
