This guideline aims to provide comprehensive and practical guidance for clinical management of tuberculosis in kidney transplant recipients. First, it summarizes the particularity of tuberculosis in kidney transplant recipients, and highlights the high incidence and diverse clinical manifestations. To better understand the patients' conditions, relevant assessment of tuberculosis is recommended before kidney transplantation. Extensive attention should be paid to the monitoring of tuberculosis after kidney transplantation. Regarding the diagnosis, the guideline explicitly introduces common diagnostic approaches for tuberculosis, and evaluates the applicability in kidney transplant recipients. After the diagnosis is confirmed, it discusses how to balance the treatment and rejection of tuberculosis under the background of immunosuppressants, and focuses upon the potential drug interaction.
