Subject: TKR...s/l "nano block"???

Total knee replacement, using computer navigation. He keeps mentioning s/l "nano block" and I cannot find this anywhere. I have looked on old reports by other MTs that have even gone through editing and they all have a blank here. He's a terrible dictator, always slurring his words. Does anyone have any idea what he could be saying here? It would eliminate a significant amount of blanks by me and the other MTs and be MUCH appreciated.

Thanks, and have a blessed day.
