    Abstract: An endoscopic system is provided for use with an endoscope, having a proximal handle and a distal end cap assembly, and a sheath extending therebetween. Systems are provided for rotationally aligning the distal end of the endoscope relative to the cap assembly, and for facilitating securing of the cap assembly and endoscope relative to each other. Systems are provided for securing the sheath along the length of the endoscope, and subsequently releasing the secure coupling. Operational systems are also provided to retroflex the cap assembly during in vivo use.
