This article focuses on the ways in which HIV infection and the associated immunodeficiency affect the management of active tuberculosis. Controversies in the management of HIV-related tuberculosis can be grouped into issues about tuberculosis treatment itself and issues posed by the use of combination antiretroviral therapy. The author reviews these controversies and makes recommendations for the management of HIV-related tuberculosis.
