Partly granted
The Board granted a 30 percent evaluation for left knee limited flexion and a 20 percent evaluation for left knee instability, but denied an increased rating for PTSD.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of left knee limited flexion and instability were found to be more severe than the current ratings, while his PTSD symptomology did not meet the criteria for a higher rating.
