In 2020, the International Federation Against Tuberculosis and Pulmonary Diseases proposed the importance of post-tuberculosis pulmonary disease (PTLD) for extrappulmonary consequences and progressive damage throughout the life course of patients, including tuberculosis recurrence and increased mortality. In clinical practice, the author proposes that the patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, were treated, in addition to the effective anti-tuberculosis therapy, rational application of tracheal dilator and symptomatic treatment, in order to reduce pulmonary function injury for the patients. And the patients with secondary pulmonary infection or diabetes mellitus to be timely treated to reduce the occurrence of PTLD. Similarly, the patient, with tuberculosis was cured after treaed, and with PTLD, were actively carried out lung function assessment and pulmonary rehabilitation treatment, pay attention to healthy diet, healthy life, and reduce recurrence.
