Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for pilonidal cyst residuals including scar and denied a compensable disability rating for chronic bronchitis.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least in equipoise to support the grant of service connection for pilonidal cyst residuals, but there was no evidence that met the criteria for a compensable rating for chronic bronchitis.
