The antisynthetase syndrome is a subgroup of idiopathic inflammatory muscle diseases. Its characteristics are interstitial lung disease, myositis, polyarthritis, mechanic's hand like cutaneous involvement, and the presence of antisynthetase antibodies (anti-Jo1). The lung disease is the presenting feature in 50% of cases. We report a patient with an antisynthetase syndrome, revealed by an acute respiratory distress syndrome. This patient was already followed-up for a scleroderma and presented a probable overlap syndrome. The disease course was favourable with anti-CD20 therapy.
