Abstract
A distal end portion of an endoscope includes: a distal end cover disposed at a distal end of an insertion portion; a distal end member configured to be inserted into and fitted to the distal end cover, the distal end member including a first side surface and a second side surface, the first side surface being configured to come into surface contact with an inner surface of the distal end cover, the second side surface being formed in a radially inward direction with respect to the first side surface, the second side surface forming a space by being separated from the inner surface of the distal end cover by a predetermined distance; an electronic component mounted on a distal end surface of the distal end member; and a wiring electrically connected to the electronic component and disposed in a space formed between the inner surface of the distal end cover and the second side surface of the distal end member.
