The Board has determined that the Veteran's service-connected condyloma accuminata in the penile and anal areas is not present at any time during the appeal period, resulting in a denial of his claim for a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: There was no recurrence or residuals of the service-connected condyloma accuminata as shown by VA examinations and treatment records, which indicated that the condition had been resolved since 1974.

Other Board decisions on a similar condition or argued the same way.
- Denied
The Board has denied the Veteran's claims for service connection for abnormal pap with atypical squamous cell and condyloma accuminata, as well as chronic cough. The Board found that there is no current disability of these conditions, and thus cannot grant service connection.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the case due to insufficient rationale in previous opinions regarding whether the Veteran's partial hysterectomy was related to her service-connected condyloma. Additional development is needed, including obtaining an operative report from Tyndall Air Force Base and a medical opinion on the cause of the hysterectomy.
- Denied
The Veteran's initial compensable rating for condyloma accuminata and erectile dysfunction was denied. The Board found no evidence of penile deformity in the case of erectile dysfunction, which precludes a higher rating under applicable diagnostic codes.,Service connection for hypertension was also denied as there is no evidence of chronic disease during service or within one year after separation from service.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Veteran's appeal is being remanded for further examination and development due to the need for updated VA treatment records, a VA examination for hypertension, and VA examinations for condyloma accuminata and erectile dysfunction.
