Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a bowel disorder as secondary to the service-connected TBI, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
The deciding factor: The evidence supports that the current bowel disorder is due to the service-connected TBI, and thus service connection is warranted on a secondary basis.
