Partly granted
The Board dismissed the appeals for a rating in excess of 10 percent for Behcet's disease and service connection for endometrial stromal sarcoma due to concurrent elections. The appeals for service connection for left and right hip disorders were denied, as was the appeal for a compensable rating for pulmonary nodules and granulomas.
The deciding factor: The claims were dismissed or denied based on procedural defects and lack of evidence supporting direct service connection for the claimed conditions.
