Subject: craniotomy

I'm having a hard time with a few words I'm transcribing for an Indian doctor. The first is-- Frontotemporal parietal craniotomy. Eviquation of subdural hematoma. I can't figure out what the underlined word is supposed to be. Also, it sounds like she says they used Midol for intraoperative relaxation. Could that be correct? Thanks as always for the help.

The area was then draped off in sterile fashion.  An incision from the root of the zygoma directed anterior and medial approximately 10 cm long was made with a scalpel through the gal-ia.  The superficial temporalis fascia was identified.  The STA was avoided. 


A Pentero microscope was then brought in for the majority of the rest of the case.  Under microscopic visualization the dura was opened.  The dura was tacked anteriorly using 4-0 Nur-lons

Doc is an ESL (and a pretty good speaker but the sound quality isn't the best), and he sounds like he says he's using a seeramick (spelled phonetically) to remove a BB from this child's ear.  I've searched my ENT and equipment books as well as googled and am having no luck finding this.  I thought maybe it was his way of pronouncing ceramic, but I don't even know if there is such a thing as a ceramic curette.  He's definitely not saying serrated.  Any ideas?
