Abstract Background Human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients are 100 times more likely to develop aseptic osteonecrosis compared with the general population. While 90% of cases concern the femoral head, the involvement of humeral bone remains rare. Case presentation We report a case of aseptic osteonecrosis of the left humeral head complicating antiretroviral therapy in a female, 46-year-old, Bissau-Guinean human immunodeficiency virus-infected patient received in a context of progressive pain in the left shoulder followed by limitation of articular movements. Standard x-ray of the shoulder allowed us to make the diagnosis by showing a typical image of osteonecrosis. The treatment was medical combined with physiotherapy. Conclusions Aseptic osteonecrosis should be systematically looked for in human immunodeficiency virus patients on antiretroviral treatment. In addition to femoral head aseptic necrosis, the involvement of the humeral bone should also be considered.
