About
Marie Heibel is a leading surgical oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive liver surgery, particularly through the rigorous evaluation of robotic and laparoscopic techniques. Her most impactful contribution is the landmark ROC’N’ROLL trial, the first single-centre, randomised, controlled, single-blinded study comparing robotic versus laparoscopic hepatectomy for liver malignancies. This work, which has already garnered 36 citations since its 2024 publication, provides critical evidence on quality-of-life outcomes, challenging assumptions and guiding clinical practice in hepatobiliary surgery. Heibel has also conducted comparative analyses of robotic sectionectomy versus hemihepatectomy, refining technical approaches to anatomic liver resections. Her research is distinguished by its methodological rigor, directly addressing the evidence gap in robotic surgery’s benefits. With her work shaping perioperative protocols and patient-centred outcomes, Heibel is a rising authority in surgical oncology, bridging innovation with empirical validation to improve recovery and survival for patients with liver malignancies.
