We show that the topological massive BF theories can be written as a pure BF term through field redefinitions. The fields are rewritten as power expansion series in the inverse of the mass parameter $m$. We also give a cohomological justification of this expansion through BRST framework. In this approach the BF term can be seen as a topological generator for massive BF theories.
