Abstract
A medical treatment tool includes: a grasping portion having a first jaw and a second jaw; a plate-shaped blade that is provided in the first jaw and that has a thickness direction; a heater that supplies, to the first blade, thermal energy for treating a tissue grasped by the grasping portion; an energy insulating member that is arranged such that only an output surface of the blade, which comes into contact with the tissue, is exposed and that blocks leakage of the thermal energy to an outside of the first jaw; and first wiring that supplies electrical energy to the heater, wherein the blade, the heater, and the first wiring are arranged so as to be laminated in the thickness direction, and an area of a supply surface where the heater supplies the thermal energy to the blade is larger than an area of the output surface.
