Abstract:
A stereoscopic endoscope includes a proximal main body, an outer tube extended to a distal end of the endoscope and a pair of optical train subassemblies. Distal and proximal inserts in the distal and proximal ends of the outer tube, respectively, support the optical train subassemblies. First and second optical fiber bundles substantially fill all of the voids between the inner surface of the outer tube and the outer surfaces of the inserts and the optical train subassemblies.

Claim (Index 21):
A stereoscopic endoscope, comprising:\n a main body having an internal cavity at a distal end of the stereoscopic endoscope; first and second image forming assemblies configured to extend proximally from the distal end of the stereoscopic endoscope into the internal cavity; a first optical fiber bundle substantially filling a first non-circular void in the main body; a second optical fiber bundle configured to substantially fill a second non-circular void in the main body, wherein the second non-circular void is separate from the first non-circular void; and a first adapter configured to connect the first optical fiber bundle and the second optical fiber bundle to an illumination source.
