Abstract: Tuberculosis (TB) is still one of the biggest health problems worldwide due to high morbidity and mortality rates. Moreover, Indonesia has the third largest TB cases in the world after India and China. This study was aimed to evaluate the risk factors of TB in children. This was a literature review study using three databases, namely Google Scholar, ClinicalKey, and PubMed. The results showed that after being selected by inclusion and exclusion criteria, there were 10 literatures in this study consisting of 2 case control studies, 4 cross sectional studies, 1 difference test, 1 meta-analysis, 1 case report, and 1 cohort study. The 10 literatures reviewed factors or characteristics of age, sex, history of BCG immunization, malnutrition, history of contact with person suffering from TB, exposure to cigarette smoke, occupant density, and poverty. Risk factors obtained from the review were young age (0-5 years), male sex, malnutrition, history of contact, and poverty. The other risk factors specifically history of BCG immunization, exposure to cigarette smoke, and occupant density were still contradicting among literatures. In conclusion, the most dominant risk factor of TB in children is history of contact with person suffering from TB.
