Partly granted
The veteran's service-connected chronic prostatitis rating was increased to 60 percent. The claim for a separate rating for bladder pheochromocytoma was remanded.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the Veteran's symptoms of urinary voiding dysfunction requiring the use of an appliance, specifically a catheter.
