Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a rating higher than 10 percent for kidney stones, right ureteral lithiasis as the evidence did not show that the condition required invasive or non-invasive procedures more than two times per year.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's disability was found to only cause occasional attacks of colic and did not result in frequent attacks requiring catheter drainage or impaired kidney function.
