ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a contact endoscope for medical purposes, whose front lens or distal cover plate for the objective is brought into contact with the place to be observed.
The invention enables a sample to be taken from the observed place even during observation, or at least immediately afterwards, without having to pull the contact endoscope out of the body.
To this end a strip-blade of small wall thickness can be moved in a slideway at a small distance in front of the front lens. In this way a sample of precisely that part which has been observed is taken at a very short distance in front of the front lens.
