Granted
The Board granted service connection for piriformis syndrome, claimed as gluteal pain, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least in relative equipoise regarding whether the Veteran's disability was incurred during his service, and there is a current diagnosis of piriformis syndrome that may be related to service.
