Abstract

Example embodiments relate to endoscopic systems. The system includes an outer assembly and main assembly. The outer assembly may include proximal and distal ends and outer anchor assembly. The outer anchor assembly may include a first expandable member and first outer pressure opening. The first expandable member may expand radially outwards. The main assembly may include proximal and distal ends and a navigation assembly. The navigation assembly may include an instrument, second expandable member, bendable section, extendible section, and first pressure opening. The extendible section may include proximal and distal ends. The proximal end of the extendible section may be secured in position relative to the distal end of the outer assembly. The extendible section may be configurable to extend and contract. The first main pressure opening may be configurable to apply a negative pressure. [Figure 6L]
