English term or phrase: anchor cap
Hello,

In a medical text related to patents, there appears the following:

"The present invention relates generally to a medical assembly for minimally invasively implanting a valve in the heart, a novel valve for replacing the native heart valve, and an anchor device for positioning and restraining the valve. ... In one aspect, the system comprises an antegrade or retrograde anchor delivery sheath that advances over the wire loop, and an antegrade or retrograde interventricular septal anchor attached to an anchor cap configured to accept a tether."

What is the meaning of "anchor cup"? I found that tether in this context could be "hilo" but "anchor cup"?
