Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for trochanteric pain syndrome of the left thigh to obtain a new VA medical opinion addressing the Veteran's in-service injury and continuity of symptoms.
The deciding factor: The previous medical opinion was found inadequate as it did not address the Veteran's statements regarding continuity of symptomatology and the in-service complaint of a left thigh bruise.
