The antrum forms the upper curvature of the stomach. Since it is often not in contact with the buffering effects of food contact , digestive juices often causes gastric irritaion (gastritis) with redness, and possible bleeding or erosion/ulcers at this point.
The antrum is one region of the stomach. Erosion refers to thinning of the lining of the stomach, creating irritation and inflammation. If untreated, erosion of the stomach lining can lead not only to gastritis but also to ulcers.
Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining, and erosive means the upper layers of the lining are missing. The antrum is a part of the stomach, specifically the upper part closest to the esophagus.
The antrum is the end of the stomach near where it connects to the intestines.
- itis means it is inflammed.
Erosive means that part of the lining is eaten away by acid.
Basically, it means that part of the stomach is being injured by too much acid.
Wow, some medical diagnoses are a mouthful (forgive the pun)! So let's break it down (second pun).
So, the test report could have said (if doctors used layman's language):
The patient has redness and spots of irritation and places rubbed thin in the stomach that appear most similar to some type of irritant that has caused the stomach lining to be inflamed and be having ouchies.
Doctors cannot always say what irritant is causing this, but it is either what is being ingested or what's being ingested that is also being vomited.

Gastritis linear hyperemia is excess blood circulation to the antrum. The small erosions in the antrum are erosions in the bottom part of the stomach most often caused by autoimmune disease.
An antrum is a cavity or chamber, such as the antrum of the lower part of the stomach. Erosion means that the lining is thinning, resulting in inflammation and irritation. Erythema describes a reddening of tissue due to irritation or injury.

Antrectomy is the medical term meaning surgical removal of the antrum. The antrum is the last part of the stomach. The procedure we think of as gastric bypass is an antrectomy with reconstruction.
Edema and erytherma in the antrum is a condition where the area is swollen and possibly congested. This condition is consistent with acute gastritis.

A biopsy is when tissue is taken from a site on or in the body for further study. This further study is for diseases or disease processes that may be forming. A biopsy of the antrum is most likely where a small amount of tissue is taken from the antrum of the stomach to be tested.
Granularity, friability, and erythema in the antrum are all endoscopic findings. If these are found a patient is usually diagnosed with Gastroduodenal Crohn's disease
