Surgical history: tonsillectomy
Explanation:

On admission to hospital IQ is likely to be "intervenciones quirúrgicas" =Surgical history / procedures

Tonsillectomy as a noun would be standard on an admission history. No need to use the past participle. (e.g. You wouldn't say "hysterectomised" in this context, you'd just say "hysterectomy")
