Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for irritable bowel syndrome and a 10 percent rating for chronic sinusitis, while remanding the claim for a compensable rating for left knee status post ACL repair.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of IBS and chronic sinusitis more closely approximate the criteria for a 10 percent rating under applicable regulations. The Board remanded the left knee condition due to insufficient evidence in the record.
