Abstrakt: Chikungunya is an arboviral disease caused by a virus with wide geographical distribution in endemic areas. This case report documents a patient with antisynthetase syndrome post-chikungunya infection. Autoimmune diseases result from breakdown of immune tolerance. Among all triggers, viruses represent the greatest environmental potential to precipitate inflammatory myopathy.
