The handle for medical instruments, especially for guiding instruments (9) into a body cavity, comprises adjacent segments (5, 6) which are hollow on the inside and form handle sections. The position of these segments can be adjusted via control wires (10, 11, 12, 13), so that different handle curvatures can be adjusted, at least two groups (2, 3) of segments being adjustable independently of one another. The segments (5) of a first (2), distal group are articulated to one another, and the proximally adjoining segments (6) of a second group (3) are non-positively connected to one another, the segments of the second group being tensioned with a variably adjustable spring force. <IMAGE> |
