Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of entitlement to service connection for residuals of renal cell carcinoma due to a pre-decisional duty-to-assist error, requiring a VA examination.
The deciding factor: A VA examination is required to determine if there is an association between the Veteran's claimed condition and his active military service, including exposure to Agent Orange.
