Abstract

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