Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the service connection claim for a right knee disability for additional development, including obtaining an adequate medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examination was found to be inadequate due to its negative opinion based on a lack of diagnosis without considering functional impairment reported by the Veteran.
