Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the service connection claim for acoustic neuroma of the left vestibular nerve due to deficiencies in the previous adjudication, including an inadequate nexus opinion and a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
The deciding factor: Deficiencies in the previous adjudication require further development through an addendum opinion from an appropriate clinician(s).
