Granted
The Board granted service connection for bladder cancer, prostate cancer, and erectile dysfunction as secondary to the service-connected prostate cancer.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least evenly balanced in showing a nexus between the Veteran's current cancers and his exposure to chemicals during active service, and between the Veteran's erectile dysfunction and his service-connected prostate cancer.
