The length of the treatment portion is shorter than ¼ of a wavelength of the ultrasonic vibration. The transmission portion has one end at a node position where the first generated node from the distal end of the treatment portion appears, and is located closer to a proximal side than the node position. The length of the transmission portion is ¼ of the wavelength. The moment shift portion is located between the treatment portion and the transmission portion. An average of I/Ais greater than an average of I/A, where Iis the second moment of area and Ais a sectional area in the treatment portion, and Iis the second moment of area and Ais a sectional area in the transmission portion.
