Abstract

We show that there exist infinitely many non-invertible, hyperbolic knots that admit toroidal Dehn surgery of hitting number four. The resulting toroidal manifold contains a unique incompressible torus meeting the core of the attached solid torus in four points, but no incompressible torus meeting it less than four points.
