Severe prolonged migrainous symptoms and prolonged partial status epilepticus are characteristic features of the MELAS syndrome (mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes). Maternal transmission previously found in myoclonus epilepsy and ragged-red fibers (MERRF), another mitochondrial disease, is suggested in this disorder as well.
严重的长期偏头痛症状和长期部分性癫痫持续状态是线粒体脑肌病伴乳酸酸中毒及卒中样发作（MELAS综合征）的特征性表现。此前在另一种线粒体疾病——肌阵挛性癫痫伴破碎红纤维（MERRF）中发现的母系遗传，在该疾病中也有提示。
