We determine the maximum number of edges that a chordal graph G can have if its degree, Δ (G), and its matching number, ν(G), are bounded. To do so, we show that for every d, ν∈ N, there exists a chordal graph G with Δ (G) < d and ν(G) < ν whose number of edges matches the upper bound, while having a simple structure: it is a disjoint union of cliques and stars.
