Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for an addendum opinion to clarify whether the Veteran's left knee meniscal tear is related to or aggravated by his service-connected left knee conditions.
The deciding factor: The June 2024 C&P examination did not provide a sufficient rationale and failed to distinguish between symptoms of the meniscal tear and post-operative residuals.
