Abstract: Changes in epidemiological characteristic of Aids in Brazil pose new challenges to public health. Presently we see an increasing growth in Aids cases among women, especially the young, and a higher incidence among the poor population and smaller cities. In addition, we see a drop in morbidity and mortality as a result of free anti-retroviral therapy. Therefore, although mortality is 50 percent less, we have a great interest in knowing what is killing people with HIV. This is fundamental to improve the Aid prevention program in the country. Investigating the mortality of 3297 women in fertile age in 26 state capitals and in the compare data from the original death certificate with the new death certificate after medical and family investigation. We identified 243 (7,4 percent) deaths of AIDS, but only in 210 original DC this was the underlying cause of the death. This work compares the original dealth certificates of women who died of Aids with death certificates redone after investigation
