Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claims for liver and right lung damage to correct duty to assist errors. The VA needs to obtain outstanding treatment records.
The deciding factor: The Board remanded because critical documents, such as informed consent forms and complete operation reports, were not associated with the claims file.
