Presentations
Joep Knol gives both lectures on local meetings (LOK), and on larger national and international conferences.
In 2012 his surgical video “Laparoscopic Splenic Flexure Mobilization : Beware of the Pancreas” was awarded by ACS (American College of Surgeons) as the best Surgical Video of the year. In the video color grading effects were used to show the embryological planes during the dissection of the splenic flexure of the colon.
In recent years he gave lectures around the world.
This list is not exhaustive, but summarizes some of the international conferences.
