An ablation system includes: an endoscope; an ablation treatment tool; an overtube; a first operation member that is provided at a base end portion of the overtube; and a second operation member that is attachable to and detachable from an intermediate position in a longitudinal direction of an insertion portion of the endoscope. The overtube has a balloon that is configured to fix the overtube to the gastro-intestinal tract; the insertion portion and the ablation treatment tool can be integrally moved in the overtube in the longitudinal direction; and the first and second operation members each have a finger holder that holds at least one finger of one hand. The first operation member is distinct from the overtube, and is attachable to and detachable from an outer circumferential surface of the overtube, at an arbitrary position in the longitudinal direction of the overtube.
