Denied
The Board denied an increased evaluation in excess of 10 percent for the left and right knee arthritis as the evidence did not show the Veteran's knee disabilities manifested with any specific criteria required for higher ratings.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's knee disabilities met the criteria for higher ratings under the applicable diagnostic codes.
