A filing apparatus constituting an examination follow-up information management apparatus is disposed in a hospital and is connected to an electronic endoscope apparatus for capturing endoscopic images. This filing apparatus is allowed to manage endoscopic images and the reservation of re-examinations (follow-up examinations) by storing endoscopic images of the patient captured by the electronic endoscope apparatus in relation to the patient information. It thereby makes possible to manage follow-up information for the simple and certain performance of follow-up examinations.
