    TB / HIV co-infection is currently considered the leading cause of death among infectious diseases globally. Bahia has 11 priority municipalities for the prevention of TB / HIV coinfection of 181 submitted by Brazil. Salvador stands out among the municipalities in the state with the highest number of reports of the disease (33,987), requiring greater attention to TB / HIV co-infection. Objective: To analyze the clinical and epidemiological profile of TB / HIV coinfection in the city of Salvador, Bahia, from 2008 to 2017. Methodology: This is an ecological, exploratory, descriptive study based on secondary data. We performed absolute and relative frequency analyzes, calculating the incidence of TB / HIV coinfection according to the year of occurrence and the laboratory confirmation incidence coefficient. Data were systematically organized using graphs and tables in Excel and analyzed in Stata 12. Results: A total of 2,028 cases of tuberculosis and HIV coinfection were reported, with a predominance of males, aged 45 to 54 years, who were declared black / brown, with incomplete high school education presenting pulmonary tuberculosis and new cases for the types of entrance in the health services. Final considerations: The clinical-epidemiological profile found is equivalent to the national profile of coinfection. However, there is a marked socioeconomic inequality in society, evidenced in the study through the level of schooling. It is therefore perceived that prevention through health education in comprehensive populations is the best solution to contain advances in cases of coinfection.
