Denied
The Board denied the claims for increased ratings for right knee osteochondroma and right knee osteoarthritis, as there was no evidence of severe subluxation or lateral instability for the former condition and no evidence of flexion limited to 30 degrees or less for the latter.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence did not indicate any level of instability or subluxation for the osteochondroma, nor did it show that the Veteran's right knee manifested in flexion limited to 30 degrees or less for the osteoarthritis.
