Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for the circumcision scar and remanded several other conditions, including prostate cancer, ED, suprapubic pain, voiding dysfunction, tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, and granulomatous epididymitis, due to a need for further evidence.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the Veteran's credible lay statements and medical evidence supporting the existence of a painful circumcision scar that is related to service. Other conditions were remanded due to insufficient evidence or the need for additional examinations.
