Clip device for endoscope

A clip device for an endoscope comprising:

• an outer tubular body;
• an inner tubular body provided in the outer tubular body;
• a line member placed in the inner tubular body;
• a pinching part for holding an indwelling clip, a proximal end of the pinching part connected to a distal side of the line member;
• and
• an indwelling clip for holding a target site, the indwelling clip held by the pinching part, wherein
• the pinching part has two pinching base plates,
• each of the two pinching base plates has a blade at a distal end, each of said blades extending toward an inside of the respective pinching base plate, so that the indwelling clip is held by the blades of the pinching part,
• a Young's modulus of the blades is smaller than that of the pinching base plates, each of the pinching base plates has a principal surface extending from the proximal end toward each of the blades in a longitudinal direction and having a width in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and
• a width of each of the blades is smaller than the width of the pinching base plates in the wide direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.
