Granted
The Board granted service connection for a right hip disability, finding that it was caused by limping due to the Veteran's other service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: The most credible medical opinion established that the Veteran's left hip condition had caused him to limp or walk with an altered gait, which in turn had caused his right hip condition.
