Abstract: A method for manufacture of a tip part for an endoscope including providing a camera assembly with an image sensor and a circuit board; providing a distal end segment having a distal end and a circumferential wall enclosing a spacing; providing an exterior housing having a circumferential wall enclosing a spacing; inserting the distal end of the camera assembly in the spacing of the exterior housing; positioning the proximal end of the exterior housing adjacent to the distal end of the distal end segment; injecting an adhesive into the spacing of the distal end segment so that at least parts of the circuit board are embedded in the adhesive; and allowing or causing the adhesive to harden; whereby the distal end segment, camera assembly and exterior housing form an assembled tip part of an endoscope attached to each other by means of the adhesive.

Abstract: An endoscope made by a method for fixation of portions of a steering wire of the endoscope, the steering wire having a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, the first portion connected to a steerable tip and the second portion connected to a control element, the method including pulling the third portion so as to tension the steering wire and inserting a pin with a wire guide into a pin spacing so that so that the second portion is positioned in the wire guide and is clamped between the pin and at least one wall of the control element, whereby the pin and the second portion are fixated to the control element to thereby maintain a wire tension between the first and second portions.

Abstract: An endoscope made by a method for fixation of portions of steering wire of the endoscope, the steering wire having a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, the method including positioning the second wire portion and the third wire portion of the steering wire adjacent to each other, applying an adhesive, at least partly enclosing the second wire portion, the third wire portion, and the adhesive with a crimp shell, and crimping the crimp shell, the second wire portion, and the third wire portion to thereby fixate the second wire portion in relation to the third wire portion.
