Descripción : Background Globally, tuberculosis is the main cause of infectious death and is considered an opportunistic infection in patients that live con HIV, causing a great morbimortality in this population group. In Ecuador, there are few epidemiological studies on mortality from coinfections in people living with HIV, so the purpose of this study is to perform an analysis about the epidemiological behavior of mortality in patients with HIV and its coinfections in Ecuador between the years 2000-2018. Methods he methodology consists of a non-experimental, descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective study applied to data of deaths from tuberculosis in adult patients (over 15 years) associated with HIV in Ecuador registered at INEC database from the years 2000-2018. Results The results obtained from this analysis show that in the investigated period (2000-2018) there were 2 138 deaths from HIV associates with the coinfection M. tuberculosis, according to data from the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INEC). Of this total, young men have the highest number of deaths compared to women with a ratio 7:2; being their mortality more prevalent in urban zones (93 percent). Likewise, it was observed that the coastal region registers 90 percent of the cases, being the province of Guayas the one that leads both in the number of deaths and in the mortality rate (8.7 per 1 000 000 inhabitants) lidering being the province with the highest mortality rate (6 percent 1 000 000 inhabitants). Regard to the evolution of mortality in the 19 years of study, the maximum peak is evidenced in 2009 with 211 deaths. In addition, the inclination of the mortality curve is not very variable, until a decrease that is perceived in 2017, which remains until 2018. Conclusion This is the first epidemiological study of coinfection mortality in patients with HIV in Ecuador. In the last 19 years of available data,the mortality of these patients has remained variable, until 2017 where a decrease is perceived. However, these results do not agree with the data obtained in UNAIDS, being this disagreement more evident in 2018, which could be related to an underreporting of data. Several strategies have been implemented in the country for the prevention and control of tuberculosis, which is why it can be presumed that they are the cause of its decline in recent years.
