Abstract: The present invention provides a balloon control device for an endscopic apparatus, which supplies and sucks a fluid to and from either a balloon mounted to an inserting section of the endscopic apparatus or a balloon mounted to an insertion assisting tool covering the inserting section for assisting the insertion of the inserting section, comprising a buffering section in a tube path through which a fluid flows so as to buffer a change in pressure of the fluid, in order to control an inner pressure of a balloon by reducing a difference between a pressure in the balloon and a pressure in a tube path.
