Preliminary questions [27479]
there is some evidence that undergoing therapy with BCG vaccine may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.27481 the veteran has undergone therapy with BCG vaccine at some time.
the veteran has undergone therapy with BCG vaccine, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis.27484 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapy with BCG vaccine and VEA service for aortic aneurysm.
27486 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapy with BCG vaccine and VEA service for the clinical onset of aortic aneurysm.
27489 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapy with BCG vaccine and operational service for the clinical onset of aortic aneurysm.
or
27490 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapy with BCG vaccine and eligible service for the clinical onset of aortic aneurysm.
or
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service. the condition under consideration permanently worsened. the veteran underwent therapy with BCG vaccine for the identified illness or injury, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis, within the 5 years before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.27488 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapy with BCG vaccine and VEA service for the clinical worsening of aortic aneurysm.
27491 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapy with BCG vaccine and operational service for the clinical worsening of aortic aneurysm.
or
27492 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the therapy with BCG vaccine and eligible service for the clinical worsening of aortic aneurysm.
Clinical onset and operational service [27489]
on operational service, the veteran underwent therapy with BCG vaccine, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis. on operational service, the veteran underwent therapy with BCG vaccine, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis, within the 5 years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.or
27483 — the veteran underwent therapy with BCG vaccine, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis, for an illness or injury which is identifiable. [Default true]
the veteran underwent therapy with BCG vaccine for the identified illness or injury, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis, within the 5 years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.27493 — the identified illness or injury, for which the therapy with BCG vaccine was undergone, is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [27490]
27483 — the veteran underwent therapy with BCG vaccine, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis, for an illness or injury which is identifiable. [Default true]
the veteran underwent therapy with BCG vaccine for the identified illness or injury, which resulted in tuberculous aortitis, within the 5 years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.27494 — the identified illness or injury, for which the therapy with BCG vaccine was undergone, is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [27491]
27493 — the identified illness or injury, for which the therapy with BCG vaccine was undergone, is causally related to operational service.
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury, for which the therapy with BCG vaccine was undergone, is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [27492]
27494 — the identified illness or injury, for which the therapy with BCG vaccine was undergone, is causally related to eligible service.
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the identified illness or injury, for which the therapy with BCG vaccine was undergone, is causally related.
