Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure relates to an endoscope (2) comprising a proximal endoscope handle (4) or interface comprising a handle or interface housing and a working channel access port (16), an insertion cord (6) extending distally from the endoscope handle (4) or interface, configured to be inserted into a patient's body cavity and comprising at least an insertion tube (8) and a distal tip unit (12) and a working channel (14) extending from the working channel access port (16) of the endoscope handle (4) or interface to the distal tip unit (12) of the insertion cord (6). The working channel (14) comprises a working channel tube (18) arranged at least in sections inside the insertion cord (6) wherein the working channel tube (18) comprises an inner friction-reducing textured or structured surface (24) and an outer surface (26). The present disclosure further relates to a method of producing a working channel tube (18).
