A treatment instrument includes: a proximal side probe transmits ultrasonic vibration from an ultrasonic transducer from its proximal end to its distal end; a distal side probe configured to transmit the ultrasonic vibration from its proximal end to a treatment portion at its distal end; a holding portion which holds a state where the proximal end of the distal side probe is into collision with the distal end of the proximal side probe, and a state where vibration from the ultrasonic transducer is transmittable from the proximal end of the proximal side probe to the distal end of the distal side probe; and an operation portion provided in the holding portion and rotating the distal side probe relative to the proximal side probe around a central axis by an operation to rotate the distal side probe around the central axis, to direct the treatment portion at the distal end of the distal side probe in a desired direction.
