Abstract: In 2017, the AIDS Group of Infectious Diseases Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the AIDS Group of tropical Diseases and Parasitology of the Chinese Medical Association jointly formulated and issued the first edition of the expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of HIV combined with Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. In 2021, Professional Committee of HIV Combined with TB, Chinese Association of STD and AIDS Prevention and Control revised and updated the first version of the consensus. The new consensus has updated the tuberculosis prophylaxis treatment in HIV/AIDS patients, the molecular diagnosis of tuberculosis, the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis, the timing and regimen of antiretroviral therapy, the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis-related immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome, and management of side effects. This consensus will be updated regularly based on the latest clinical research evidence.
