Granted
The Veteran is granted a 10 percent rating for his service-connected scar, status post suboccipital craniotomy with resection of a right cerebellar from January 25, 2022.
The deciding factor: The evidence shows that the Veteran's scar manifested functional impairment equivalent to one painful or unstable scar during the entire appeal period, warranting a 10 percent rating under DC 7804.
