Abstract
We determine all hyperbolic 3-manifolds admitting two toroidal Dehn fillings at distance 4 or 5. We show that if is a hyperbolic 3-manifold with a torus boundary component , and are two slopes on with or 5 such that and both contain an essential torus, then is either one of 14 specific manifolds , or obtained from or by attaching a solid torus to . All the manifolds are hyperbolic, and we show that only the first three can be embedded into . As a consequence, this leads to a complete classification of all hyperbolic knots in admitting two toroidal surgeries with distance at least 4.
