An endoscope procedure instrument provided with: a tube part that is cylindrical in shape and attaches to the front end of the endoscope, the tube part having a slit provided to the side surface thereof extending along the direction of the central axis; and a grasping member that is disposed to the tube part extending along the slit, for holding a biologic tissue with respect to the endoscope.
1. An endoscope procedure instrument comprising:
a tube part formed in a cylindrical shape and projected in a longitudinal direction from a distal end of an endoscope, a proximal end of the tube part being connected to the distal end of the endoscope,
a tongue piece rotatably disposed on the tube part, the tongue piece defining an outer surface and an interior in optical communication with the distal end of the endoscope;
a grasping member configured to hold a biologic tissue, the grasping member being fixed to the outer surface of the tongue piece and projecting radially outward from the outer surface of the tongue piece; and
an operation member connected to the tongue piece such that an articulation of the operation member rotates the tongue piece relative to the tube part.
2. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 1 , wherein the grasping member comprises an irregular portion to hold a biologic tissue, the irregular portion being disposed on the outer surface of the tongue piece.
3. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 2 , wherein the irregular portion comprises a plurality of projections.
4. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 1 , further comprising a pivot for rotatably disposing the tongue piece relative to the tube part, wherein the grasping member is offset in the longitudinal direction from the pivot.
5. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 1 , further comprising an external tube, the operation member being movably disposed in the external tube, the external tube being connected with an outer peripheral surface of the tube part.
6. An endoscope procedure instrument comprising:
a tube part formed in a cylindrical shape and projected in a longitudinal direction from a distal end of an endoscope, a proximal end of the tube part being connected to the distal end of the endoscope,
a tongue piece rotatably disposed on the tube part, at least a portion of the tongue piece extending distally from the distal end of the endoscope;
a grasping member configured to hold a biologic tissue, the grasping member being fixed to the outer surface of the tongue piece and projecting from an outer surface of the tongue piece at the portion of the tongue piece; and
an operation member connected to the tongue piece such that an articulation of the operation member rotates the tongue piece relative to the tube part.
7. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 6 , wherein the grasping member comprises an irregular portion to hold a biologic tissue, the irregular portion being disposed on the portion of the tongue piece.
8. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 7 , wherein the irregular portion comprises a plurality of projections.
9. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 6 , further comprising a pivot for rotatably disposing the tongue piece relative to the tube part, wherein the grasping member is offset in the longitudinal direction from the pivot.
10. The endoscope procedure instrument according to claim 6 , further comprising an external tube, the operation member being movably disposed in the external tube, the external tube being connected with an outer peripheral surface of the tube part.
