Abstract
A medical device includes an elongated medical device body; a first operating line and a second operating line inserted in an axial direction of the medical device body; and a bending operating part for performing a bending operation of a distal end part of the medical device body by pulling the first and second operating lines, at an intermediate part and a proximal end part in the axial direction of the medical device body, the first and second operating lines extending in parallel so as to be spaced apart from each other in a circumferential direction of the medical device body, and at the distal end part in the axial direction of the medical device body, the first and second operating lines being curved and joined together so as to approach each other in the circumferential direction of the medical device body gradually toward a distal end side.
