Rough antral mucosa

Rough antral mucosa may be caused by irregular eating, or it may be a gastric ulcer caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. The gastric mucosa of a normal person is smooth. If the antral mucosa is found to be rough during a gastroscopy, it means that there is a problem with the stomach.
