Granted
The Board granted service connection for right knee, involving posterior horn of medial meniscus and body of medial meniscus, as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected left knee patellofemoral syndrome.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's right knee disability was caused or aggravated by his service-connected left knee disability, and resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran, service connection for the right knee condition is warranted.
