Partly granted
The Board denied an initial compensable rating for acute renal failure and remanded the claim for a chronic ingrown toenail evaluation.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran's acute renal failure met the criteria for a compensable rating, while there was a need to complete a scars/disfigurement examination for the ingrown toenails.
