Multifaceted Effects of Selective Inhibitor of Phosphodiesterase III, Cilostazol, for Cerebral Vasospasm after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in a Dog Model

Abstract

Cilostazol attenuates vasospasm following SAH in dogs by suppressing phenotypic changes in the basilar artery and preventing endothelial damage. Therefore, we anticipate that cilostazol may be useful in the management of vasospasm.
