What does ANTRAL mean in Scrabble?
adjective
medical
Relating to an antrum, a naturally occurring cavity or chamber within the body, most often one of the sinuses of the skull or a cavity in the stomach wall.
Doctors use antral chiefly to describe structures or conditions connected with the maxillary sinus, the largest of the air-filled spaces in the face, as well as with the antrum of the stomach near its lower end. An antral condition, such as antral gastritis, refers to inflammation confined to that particular chamber rather than spreading through the whole organ. The word lets a specialist name the exact cavity involved instead of describing the whole organ in general terms.
