About
Dr. Allison H. Feibus is a pioneering urologic surgeon and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of 3D printing technology and surgical oncology. Her primary research focus is the development and validation of patient-specific, 3D-printed physical models of renal malignancies for preoperative planning and surgical simulation. In her landmark 2014 pilot study—cited over 200 times—Dr. Feibus demonstrated that standard cross-sectional imaging could be used to create accurate, tangible models of kidney tumors. She subsequently advanced this concept in a 2017 feasibility study (100 citations), showing that soft-tissue, malleable models could be resected in a simulated setting, allowing surgeons to rehearse complex partial nephrectomies. Her work has been instrumental in moving 3D printing from a novelty to a practical surgical tool, with the potential to improve oncologic outcomes and preserve renal function. Dr. Feibus’s contributions have been recognized through presentations at major urology meetings, including the American Urological Association, where she has shared her insights on individualized simulation and the role of minimally invasive techniques. Her research continues to shape how surgeons prepare for challenging renal surgeries.
