Background: Opportunistic infection (OI) by tuberculosis is the most common cause of death for people infected with HIV worldwide, mainly in persons with untreated HIV infection. The aim of the study was to determine the risk factors associated with TB as an OI of HIV-infected patients. Methods: The study conducted in Voluntary Counseling Testing (VCT) clinics in several hospitals of seven provinces (North Sumatera, West Sumatera, Riau Islands, South Sulawesi, North Sulawesi, Maluku, and Papua). This was a cross sectional study and the respondentselected by purposive sampling. There were 490 HIV patients included in this study. Data were collected using a spesific questionnaire. Statistical analyses were done using STATA 9.0 version. Results: Among 490 HIV patients, there were 238 (48.6%) patients with TB as IO. The precentage of TB as OI in the younger HIV-infected group was higher than the older group. Among the HIV-infected persons, males had a 24% higher risk of becoming infected with TB than females [adjusted relative risk (RRa)=1.24; P=0.023]. Stage 4 HIV-infected persons had 53% risk of TB as OI compared to stages 1-3 (RRa=1.55; P=0.000). Conclusion: Patients with stage 4 HIV infection and male were more at risk for developing opportunistic tuberculosis infection.
