ABSTRACT:
An endoscope for examining the interior of a canal or hollow organ. The endoscope includes an optical system and a channel for an auxiliary instrument such as a laser probe. The distal end of the endoscope shaft and that of the optical system each have a groove-shaped recess so that, upon pulling back of the auxiliary instrument into the endoscope, the probe head, guided by the edge of the recess of the endoscope shaft, is deflected laterally downward of the optical system so as not to impede the field of view of the optical system.
