Denied
The Board denied service connection for T1-T2 scoliosis, a right ankle disability, and a right hip disability. The increased rating claim for left upper extremity peripheral neuropathy was also denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the claims as there was no indication of an in-service injury or disease related to these conditions, and the Veteran's congenital scoliosis was not subject to superimposed disease or injury during service.
