Zusammenfassung:An endoscope having an outer shaft member with a distal end forming a distal end of the endoscope and an optics member with a distal end. The optics member is located inside the outer shaft member. The optics member defines a viewing direction of the endoscope, the viewing direction being tilted relative to a longitudinal axis of the outer shaft member. The endoscope further has optical fibers comprising an optically transparent material and provided and conditioned for the transport of illumination light to the distal end of the endoscope. The endoscope further has a segment located between an outer surface region of the distal end of the optics member and an inner surface region of the distal end of the outer shaft member. The orientation of distal ends of the optical fibers is defined by the segment.
