Abstract
An elongate injection needle is passed through an applicator. When the needle is inserted into any desired insertion position, it is fixed to the applicator by means of an instrument fixing member of a handle section. In this state, the shape of a bendable portion on the distal end side of an insert section can be easily changed by turning one of two knobs of the handle section to bend the bendable portion.
