Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a cervical disability, including HPV with high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, and denied an increased rating for PTSD.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of the cervical disability more closely approximated those associated with a 70 percent rating, while her PTSD did not cause the level of impairment required for a higher rating.
