Oral or parenteral Ginkgo biloba extract seems to uniformly improve the ultrastructural qualities of vestibular sensorial epithelia when fixed by vascular perfusions. The improvements observed may be consequential to the effects of Ginkgo biloba extract on capillary permeability and general microcirculation, which would accelerate penetration of the fixator into vestibular tissues, and/or to more complex processes associated with cellular metabolism and membrane protective systems.
