Subject: caput cecum

The doctor is dictating a colonoscopy and says "A biopsy was taken in the cap at cecum just below the ileocecal valve." Is it cap at cecum or caput cecum?  Or is it something else. He says it in almost every report. If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.  Thanks!!!!

Subject: Colonoscopy. The scope was advanced to the cecum while looking at s/l the pole of Newman.

Don't laugh, I know it sounds stupid, but the only thing they always look at is the IC valve or appendiceal lumen, but it sounds just like that, the pole of Newman.

correct = nicked (verb: to cut nick into)

onelook.com is a good dictionary source on-line.
Were is correct.
Subject: Were is correct.

As the word remainder represents a portion, the verb to use is determined by the noun in the "of phrase" that follows. In your case, "forms" is plural so use were.

This rule also applies for other "portion" words such as none, all, some, part, etc. Hope this helps.

PS: See 'The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation' by Jane Straus.
