Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for an initial disability rating for left knee limitation of flexion and extension, as well as entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU), due to additional development necessary.
The deciding factor: The AOJ did not comply with prior remand directives, and there are contradictory opinions regarding the severity of the Veteran's left knee disabilities that need resolution.
