1. An endoscope comprising:
- an insertion section having at least a first treating tool insertion channel and a second treating tool insertion channel, each having a distal end opening at a distal end of the insertion section for enabling at least respective first and second treating tools to be projected therefrom;
a first mechanism provided at the distal end opening of the first treating tool insertion channel and having an operation member for changing a projecting direction of the first treating tool toward a first direction; and
a second mechanism provided at the distal end opening of the second treating tool insertion channel and having an operation member for changing a projecting direction of the second treating tool toward a second direction different from the first direction.

Abstract
An endoscope is provided which has a first forceps raising base and a second forceps raising base. The first forceps raising base is provided at a distal end opening of a first treating tool insertion channel formed at a distal end of an insertion section, and is adapted to be raised in a first direction. The second forceps raising base is provided at a distal end opening of a second treating tool insertion channel formed at the distal end of the insertion section, and is adapted to be raised in a second direction different from the first direction. The first and second raising directions of the first and second forceps raising bases are different from each other in at least two combinations.
