Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claim for service connection of a penile condition because it needs more evidence to decide if the condition is related to the veteran's service-connected major depressive disorder.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the initial medical opinion was inadequate and did not address all relevant factors, including the specific question posed by the AOJ and the theory of aggravation on a secondary basis.
