There is provided an endoscopic snare including: a flexible sheath 1； a cable 2 configured to slide in the sheath； a snare loop 3 connected to the cable 2, and projecting from or retracting into the sheath 1； a distal end tip 4 disposed in a distal end part of the sheath and retaining the snare loop 3； and a hand operating part for operating the snare loop 3 via the cable 2. One end of the snare loop 3 is attached to the distal end tip and the other end of the snare loop 3 is attached to a distal end of the cable. The snare loop 3 is expanded into a ring shape without a protruding portion when it is projected from the sheath 1, and is formed into an asymmetric shape where expansion is deviated to either side about an axis of the sheath.
