Granted
The veteran's service connection for right knee, left knee, and low back disabilities has been granted as secondary to their service-connected bilateral ankle sprain.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence was in relative equipoise regarding a causal relationship between the Veteran's disabilities and his service-connected bilateral ankle disabilities.
