Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a compensable evaluation for chronic suppurative otitis media, mastoiditis, and cholesteatoma of the left ear.
The deciding factor: There was no evidence of active suppuration or aural polyps during the period on appeal to warrant a 10 percent rating under Diagnostic Code 6200.
