9. An endoscope apparatus comprising:
-
a guide wire inserted into an intestinal tract; an insertion portion of an endoscope having an insertion path through which the guide wire can pass; and a fixing member that fixes a distal end portion of the guide wire which is inserted into the insertion path to protrude from an opening on a distal end side of the insertion portion and which is bent into a quasi-U shape, disposed outside the insertion portion and closer to a proximal end side than the distal end portion of the insertion portion.

10. An endoscope apparatus insertion method comprising:
-
a step of causing a guide wire passed through an insertion path in an insertion portion of an endoscope passed through a passage hole of an endoscope insertion aid to protrude from an opening on a distal end side of the insertion portion; a step of bending a region of a distal end side of the protruding guide wire into a quasi-U shape; a step of fixing the distal end of the bent guide wire to a fixing unit of the endoscope insertion aid; and a step of inserting, in a state in which a region protruding from the opening on the distal end side of the insertion portion of the guide wire is bent into a quasi-U shape and the distal end of the guide wire is fixed to the fixing unit, the quasi-U-shaped region of the guide wire and the insertion portion into an intestinal tract. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
