Abstract: An endoscope with more flexibility, higher curvature and longer service life, for increasing the convenience of an endoscopic procedure. The endoscope includes a flexible bending section with slits of various width at different parts, which facilitates high dimensional bending of the bending section with the assistance of guide wires, while the wider slits at proximal and distal tips offer higher dimensional bending. Unique shape and structure of the slits relieve bending and twisting stress normally exerted on a spot to a surface, which avoids easy wreckage and thus guarantees a longer service life. Besides, the guide wires fastened through buckles ensure more stability and save all the inconvenience from dispensing glue.
