Abstract

Zika virus outbreak is spreading in the Americas. This emerging infection is associated with neurological complication. We report the first travel-acquired Zika acute infection complicated with myocarditis imported to mainland France. We recommend an electrocardiogram and troponin if any cardiac symptoms are present in a patient with acute Zika infection.
