Denied
The Board denied service connection for the cause of the Veteran's death due to renal cell cancer, finding no evidence that it was related to his military service.
The deciding factor: The record lacks a competent medical opinion or other evidence necessary to establish a causal relationship between the Veteran's renal cell cancer and his military service.
