Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for an initial compensable rating for residuals of kidney cancer to afford the Veteran a new VA examination.
The deciding factor: An examination report without consideration of the Veteran's competent reports is inadequate, as per Dalton v. Nicholson, 21 Vet. App. 23 (2007).
