Abstract: A medical instrument has a handle arranged at the proximal end, a shank extending distally proceeding from the handle, and a movable jaw part arranged at the distal end of the shank. The shank is designed to be rigid and includes at least one proximal bend region and at least one distal bend region, in which the extension direction of the shank changes. A section of the shank in which the distal bend region is situated may be rotated about the longitudinal axis relative to a section of the shank in which the proximal bend region is situated. The jaw part is rotatable relative to the shank about its distal longitudinal axis at the distal end.

Abstract: An endoscope has an optics housing provided at a proximal end, with an outer shank releasably connected to the optics housing, and with an inner shank which is arranged inside and parallel to the outer shank and is releasably connected to the optics housing. A corresponding endoscope set and a set of endoscope shanks are also provided.

Abstract: A hysteroscope for carrying out endoscopic operations in the uterus by way of an auxiliary instrument, consists of an inner shank and an outer shank surrounding the inner shank whilst forming a longitudinal channel, of a first fitting for supplying rinsing fluid to be supplied through the inner shank into the uterus and of a second fitting for removing rinsing fluid from the uterus via the longitudinal channel. Furthermore there are provided a third fitting on which the auxiliary instrument is introducable into the hysteroscope and is further distally movable through a working channel, and deflection means with which the distal end region of the auxiliary instrument is elastically laterally deflectable.
