The endoscopic instrument has a fool () rigidly connected to the distal end and designed to bear on the internal organ, and also controllable means () for conferring movements on the tool, at least in directions transverse to a longitudinal axis (X) of the distal end of the endoscopic instrument, when the foot is bearing against the internal organ.
