ABSTRACT:
A surgical microscope arrangement comprises a stand unit with a surgical microscope having an ocular unit and a tubular unit. The surgical microscope is carried by a stand unit in holding the ocular unit while allowing for pivoting of the tubular unit. When the tubular unit is pivoted, the ocular unit remains stationary. This can be achieved by providing an interface unit in the surgical microscope connecting the tubular unit with the ocular unit. The interface is formed as a rotary joint and includes a first portion which is to be connected to the ocular unit and the stand while the second portion of the interface unit is connected to the tubular unit of the microscope. The second portion of the interface unit can be pivoted with respect to the first portion of the interface unit.
