Diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis is challenging in children with HIV infection. We describe the clinical features, diagnostic testing results, tuberculosis and HIV treatment, and clinical outcomes of 57 HIV-infected children diagnosed with tuberculosis at the DarDar Pediatric Program in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. In this cohort, tuberculosis was common, microbiologic studies were frequently negative and mortality was high.
