caput cecum

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!!!!

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