Denied
The Board denied the veteran's appeal for a rating in excess of 10 percent for his service-connected right radius/ulnar wrist fracture, as there was no evidence of ankylosis or other factors that would warrant a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not have ankylosis and the pain and limited motion were already contemplated by the current 10% rating under Diagnostic Code 5215.
