- endoscopic surgery a plurality of holes are made in the patient's body wall, the endoscope is inserted into the body cavity from one of the holes, and the treatment tool is inserted into the body cavity from the other hole. I have to. Then, the biological tissue is treated with the treatment tool while observing the biological tissue in the body cavity with the endoscope.
- one or a plurality of treatment tools are used simultaneously with an endoscope. For this reason, it is difficult for a single operator to operate the endoscope and a plurality of treatment tools at the same time. For example, the operator holds the endoscope in both hands while operating an endoscope by an assistant called a scopist. Operations such as operating a treatment tool are usually performed.
- an operator's hand is closed by operating a treatment tool, and the operation of the endoscope is generally performed by an assistant. Therefore, when changing the observation position of the endoscope, the surgeon must sequentially give instructions to the assistant. Therefore, it is difficult to correctly orient the endoscope in the direction desired by the operator, and the operator is likely to be stressed.

- the cylindrical body of only the part that needs to be curved is configured by an elastic body (at least the part led out from the endoscope delivery port 312 into the body cavity is configured by an elastic body), and the cylindrical body on the base end side thereof is An endoscope formed of a hard material (hard resin, metal, etc.) that is difficult to bend may be used.
- the entire cylindrical body of the outer peripheral portion of the endoscope insertion portion 102 or the cylindrical body only in a portion that requires bending on the distal end side need only be flexible even if it does not have elasticity. .
- the sliding resistance with the guide part guide part 384, upright stand 390
- the tip portion led out from the endoscope delivery port 312 will protrude in an arc shape, and the field of view will be reduced. There is a possibility that the deviation of the direction becomes too large.
- the sliding resistance with the guide portion is increased, but the distal end portion led out from the endoscope delivery port 312 is Since it protrudes linearly, it can be suppressed so that the deviation in the viewing direction does not become too large.
- the guide portion guides the distal end of the endoscope insertion portion 102 inserted through the endoscope insertion passage 306 of the outer tube 300 in a direction away from the distal end of the treatment instrument insertion portion 202.
- the stand 390 is provided in the endoscope insertion passage 306, but the guide portion is provided in the treatment instrument insertion passage 308 so that the distal end of the treatment instrument insertion portion 202 inserted through the treatment instrument insertion passage 308 of the outer tube 300 is inward. You may make it guide in the direction away from the front-end
- the guide portion of the first insertion passage of the outer tube 300 through which the first insertion portion of the first medical instrument is inserted and the second insertion passage of the outer tube 300 through which the second insertion portion of the second medical device is inserted Let the insertion path to be provided be the first insertion path.
- the first insertion passage is an insertion passage through which the endoscope insertion portion 102 is inserted and the second insertion passage is an insertion passage through which the treatment instrument insertion portion 202 is inserted, as in the above embodiment,
- the first insertion passage may be an insertion passage through which the treatment instrument insertion portion 202 is inserted
- the second insertion passage may be an insertion passage through which the endoscope insertion portion 102 is inserted.
