Tuberculosis remains a major public health problem. Genetic epidemiological studies have shown that the differences in host genes partly determine the susceptibility to tuberculosis. The occurrence of tuberculosis is the result of the joint action of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and host gene regulation immune response. The study of susceptibility candidate genes has differences in race, population and region, and the study of susceptibility gene polymorphism still has a long way to go in clinical precision diagnosis and treatment. The study and clinical application of mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease can be used as a classic application of precision medical treatment in tuberculosis; although it is a rare case, this model is worthy of reference.
