This suturing instrument has a flexible inserted portion, which is introduced into a body cavity, and a hand operated portion, which is manipulated from outside the body by the surgeon. An anchoring member, which is attached to suture material, is housed inside the puncture needle at the end of the inserted portion. A pushing member, which pushes out the anchoring member, has a structure that enables it to be inserted into the inserted portion and the hand operated portion. Further, the puncture needle communicates with a flow path inside the hand operated portion, and a gas port for supplying flow to this flow path is provided to the hand operated portion.
