Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for compensation under 38 U.S.C. § 1151 for residuals of gynecomastia surgery, finding no evidence that VA treatment caused additional disability.
The deciding factor: The June 2023 VA clinician found that the Veteran did not suffer additional disability following VA surgery for gynecomastia and there was no fault on the part of VA in furnishing the medical treatment.
