Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the case due to an intertwined service connection issue for left tubal ectopic pregnancy, status-post left salpingectomy. The initial rating claim for right salpingo-oophorectomy is also being considered.
The deciding factor: Due process requires that both issues be addressed before proceeding with the initial rating claim.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
