Introduction: Tonsillectomy is one of the most common otolaryngologic surgeries and is increasingly being performed for the management of tonsil stones or tonsilloliths. Incidentally, over the years, tonsilloliths have become a popular topic on the social media platform TikTok (ByteDance, Beijing, China) and we propose that this may be influencing the trends of tonsillectomies for tonsil stones.Objectives: We aim to assess rates of outpatient visits and tonsillectomies for tonsil stones at our institution as well as analyze videos on TikTok regarding tonsil stones.Methods: A retrospective chart query was performed. Data including the number of patient encounters per month with a diagnosis code of tonsilloliths were collected from July 2016 to December 2021. The number of TikTok videos under the search result “tonsil stones” and the content of these videos were reviewed.Results: There were 126 patients seeking evaluation for tonsil stones with an average age of 33.4 years, and 76% were females. The number of patients who underwent a tonsillectomy for tonsil stones increased from two in the first full year of collection in 2017 to 13 in 2021. Similarly, the average number of patients presenting for tonsil stone evaluation per month increased steadily from 1.0 in 2017 to 3.3 in 2021. TikTok video content under the search result “tonsil stones” varied and the number of videos on this topic has increased in recent years.Conclusion: Rates of patients seeking tonsillectomy for tonsil stones increased from 2016 to 2021 in conjunction with the rising popularity of TikTok. Given the numerous TikTok videos featuring tonsil stones, we believe that this social media platform may be influencing the number of patients seeking evaluation for tonsil stones. This data may be used to understand future influence patterns of social media posts on healthcare consumer behavior and patient care practices.
