33748 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the acute traumatic injury to the diaphragm and VEA service for hiatus hernia.

33750 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the acute traumatic injury to the diaphragm and VEA service for the clinical onset of hiatus hernia.

33753 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the acute traumatic injury to the diaphragm and operational service for the clinical onset of hiatus hernia.

or

33754 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the acute traumatic injury to the diaphragm and eligible service for the clinical onset of hiatus hernia.

or

7334
