Abstract
An endoscope having an articulated bending section body including a number of segments, the segments having a central passage adapted in cross-sectional shape to receive and support the exterior surface of a bendable tubular member providing a working channel of the endoscope. The cross-sectional shape includes a number of sectors of a circular periphery having a shared center and the same radius, the total length of said sectors being longer than half of said circular periphery, so as to provide said support for the exterior of the bendable tubular member providing the working channel of the endoscope. The cross-sectional shape includes at least one outwardly extending lobe in which a coil spring is accommodated.
