PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connector structure which is to be used for an electronic endoscope and with which places breeding bacteria can be eliminated as much as possible in its connection part and the inside of the connection part of the connector part can completely be sealed from antispetic during washing the electronic endoscope. SOLUTION: The connector structure connecting the electronic endoscope 10 with an external device consists of a first connection part 40 on the side of the electronic endoscope and a second connection part 42 on the side of the external device. On the connection end faces of both of them, electric contact elements (82 and 84) arranged in the relation of a mirror image with each other are arranged. Guide means (64, 100, 102 and 104) cooperating with each other are provided at the first and second connection parts. When rotating both of the connection parts, both of the connection parts are connected with each other by the guide means and the electric contact elements of both of them are brought into electrical contact with each other. Then, the electrical contact area is sealed by a seal element 106.
