Antisynthetase syndrome is characterized by the presence of anti-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase antibodies and characteristic clinical features. We report an anti-EJ antibody-positive case presenting an ILD with slight hyperkeratotic skin changes on the fingertips that appeared simultaneously with respiratory symptoms. We suspected those skin changes of a disease manifestation of antisynthetase syndrome, and thus investigated anti-synthetase antibodies. This case implies that broader spectrum of the patients should fall in antisynthetase syndrome even though the present diagnostic criteria call for mechanic's hand as a skin manifestation. Careful examination of the finger skin and antibody testing should lead to a proper understanding of the pathological processes.
