Granted
The Board granted service connection for ductal carcinoma in situ in the left breast, finding that it is at least as likely as not related to the Veteran's active-duty military service.
The deciding factor: A February 2024 VA medical opinion established a nexus between the Veteran's service and her breast cancer, considering exposure to hazardous materials during her active-duty service.
