Granted
The Board granted the restoration of separate service connection for renal dysfunction and the restoration of entitlement to special monthly compensation (SMC) benefits.
The deciding factor: The grant of service connection was found not to be clearly and unmistakably erroneous, as the Veteran's renal dysfunction is a distinct condition secondary to his service-connected hypertension.
