    Author: Grinda JM, Zegdi R, Leroux R, Deloche A.
    Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2002 Apr; 21(4):763-4. PubMed ID: 11932182.
    Abstract:
    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.
