Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for an evaluation in excess of 10 percent for right knee Osgood-Schlatter's disease with meniscal tear, finding that the disability did not meet the criteria for a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's right knee disability was found to be manifested by limited flexion and extension, but did not meet the criteria for a higher evaluation under applicable diagnostic codes.
