The 36 children consisted of 21 boys (58.3%) boys and 15 (53.6%) girls. The forms of tuberculosis diagnosed were pulmonary 23 (63.9%). Disseminated and abdominal tuberculosis were diagnosed in 6 (16.7%) and 4 (11.1%) children, respectively. Miliary, meningeal forms of tuberculosis with tuberculoma were diagnosed in 1 (2.7%) child each. Twelve (33.3%) children exhibited treatment failure to Category I antituberculous (Anti-Tb) drugs. The majority 8 (66.7%) of the 12 with Category 1 treatment failure had underlying AIDS.
