A surgical apparatus (10) provides multidimensional views of the internal area of a biological specimen. The apparatus (10) includes an endoscope (14) connected to an operating microscope (12). The endoscope (14) can be a sleeve (46) formed by a series of collar elements (36) or a rigid rod (64). The endoscope contains a guide (24) or lens means (66) for transmitting an optical image and an illuminating means (44) for the transmission of light. A moveable prism (70) is positioned on the end of each of the guide (24) or lens means (66) and serves to enlarge the apparatus's field of view as well as enhance stereoscopic imaging.
