Denied
The appeal for a rating in excess of 20 percent for post-operative bone tumor removal, left tibia with bone graft was denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the criteria for a higher rating as it did not meet the requirements for nonunion of the tibia and fibula, malunion, or other specified conditions.
