- W3184868553 abstract "Abstract Background Tonsillectomy is one of the most frequently performed surgeries in children and young adults worldwide. For decades, tonsillectomy was the surgical treatment of choice for recurrent acute tonsillitis. Tonsillotomy was used in some countries as an alternative to tonsillectomy only for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in young children. In recent years, an increase of tonsillotomy also to treat recurrent acute tonsillitis can be observed. Therefore, the German Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG) was commissioned by the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) to investigate whether tonsillotomy offers advantages compared to tonsillectomy. The meta-analysis of the IQWiG including studies until 2016 revealed that the long-term benefits and harms of tonsillotomy compared to tonsillectomy are unclear. Consequently, the G-BA performed a European call for a clinical trial. A consortium of the German Professional Association of ENT-surgeons (BVHNO), the German Society of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, Head and Neck Surgery (DGHNO-KHC), and the Jena University Hospital were finally selected to perform the TOTO study. Methods TOTO is a multicenter, 1:1 two-arm, randomized non-blinded non-inferiority trial. Four hundred fifty-four patients ≥ 3 years of age will be randomly allocated to undergo either tonsillotomy or tonsillectomy as surgical treatment of recurrent acute tonsillitis. All participants will be followed up for a total of 24 months. The primary outcome is the number of sore throat days experienced over the 24-month follow-up. Discussion TOTO is designed to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of tonsillectomy versus tonsillectomy for the management of patients with recurrent acute tonsillitis. Tonsil disease and surgery have a major impact on preschool and school children as well as on economically active young adults, with individual and societal costs through loss of school visits, earnings, and productivity. If tonsillotomy is at least as effective as tonsillectomy but with reduced morbidity, this would reduce costs to the healthcare system and society.
