The aim of this study was to assess treatment outcome and associated risk factors among TB patients registered for anti-TB treatment at Enfraz health center, northwest Ethiopia.
Methods.
A five-year retrospective data (2007–2011) of tuberculosis patients ( n = 417 ) registered for anti-TB treatment at Enfraz health center, northwest Ethiopia, were reviewed.

Among 417 study participants, 95 (22.8%), 141 (33.8%), and 181 (43.4%) were smear-positive, smear-negative, and extrapulmonary tuberculosis patients, respectively.
Of the 417 study participants, 206 (49.4%) were tested for HIV.
The TB-HIV coinfection was 24/206 (11.7%).
