Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claims for service connection of right and left hip conditions, secondary to a service-connected bilateral knee condition. The Board found that additional evidence is needed to properly adjudicate these claims.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the VA opinions provided were inadequate for adjudication purposes, requiring further examination and opinion on the nature and etiology of the veteran's hip disabilities.
