Abstract
An ultrasonic treating tool comprises a gripping section incorporating an ultrasonic vibration element for generating an ultrasonic vibration, a vibration transmitting section for transmitting a vibration from the ultrasonic vibration element to a distal end, a clamping member opened and closed relative to the probe, and a handle provided at the gripping section to open and close the clamping member, in which a force applying point of the handle is displaced more on a proximal end side than at a swing center of the handle and the acting direction of a force application point is toward and away from the gripping section.
