Partly granted
The Board granted a 60 percent rating for prostate cancer with residuals, denied ratings in excess of 10 percent for tachycardia and an initial compensable rating for erectile dysfunction, and granted service connection for a psychiatric disability.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence showing that the Veteran's prostate symptoms warranted a higher rating due to urine leakage requiring the use of an appliance, while his other conditions did not meet the criteria for increased ratings or service connection.
