Zusammenfassung:	We report the case of replacement of a dysfunctional tricuspid Hancock bioprosthesis by a cryopreserved mitral homograft. Tricuspid bioprosthesis was approached on a beating heart. The mitral homograft was orientated so as the anatomic anterior leaflets corresponding and a semi rigid prosthetic ring was inserted. At 1 year follow-up, the patient's clinical condition and echocardiographic results were satisfactory.
