To provide a medical energy irradiation apparatus which, having a simple and
inexpensively
manufacturable structure, enables a doctor using it in the heat curing of prostatic
hypertrophy or the like to accurately and stably irradiate a prescribed site deep
in a living body with a laser beam and, even if its observation window is smeared,
to observe tissues of a living body. An inserting portion of the medical energy
irradiation apparatus to be inserted into a living body according to the invention
has an emitting portion for emitting a laser beam toward tissues of the living
body; an observation window, provided near the tip of the inserting portion in
its inserting direction, for observing the tissues of the living body; and a hollow
pipe for supporting a supporting member, which supports the emitting portion, shiftably
in the lengthwise directions of the inserting portion and feeding detergent to
the observation window. Therefore, when the observation window is smeared, detergent
can be fed to the observation window to remove the smear of the observation window.
