The Board has denied the veteran's claims for service connection for squamous metaplasia and any residuals thereof, as well as her claim for an ovarian cyst condition. The evidence does not support a finding of current disability related to these conditions.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence does not show that the veteran currently suffers from squamous metaplasia or an ovarian cyst condition, nor is there sufficient evidence linking any such conditions to service.
