Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claim for service connection of chronic iliotibial strain. The Veteran's claim will be reconsidered with a new VA examination.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner did not provide an opinion on the cause of the hip condition and its relation to military service, which is essential for the Board's analysis.
