Preliminary questions [27469]

27576

there is some evidence that pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.

27577 the veteran has had pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung at some time.

31750 — pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung is an illness or injury that is identifiable.

27592 — the veteran has established the causal connection between pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung and VEA service for bronchiectasis.

27579

the veteran had the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, before the clinical onset of bronchiectasis.

27580 — the veteran has established the causal connection between pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung and VEA service for the clinical onset of bronchiectasis.

27583 — the veteran has established the causal connection between pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung and operational service for the clinical onset of bronchiectasis.

or

27584 — the veteran has established the causal connection between pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung and eligible service for the clinical onset of bronchiectasis.

or

7334

7335

the condition under consideration permanently worsened.

27581

the veteran had the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, before the clinical worsening of bronchiectasis.

27582 — the veteran has established the causal connection between pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung and VEA service for the clinical worsening of bronchiectasis.

27586 — the veteran has established the causal connection between pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung and operational service for the clinical worsening of bronchiectasis.

or

27585 — the veteran has established the causal connection between pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung and eligible service for the clinical worsening of bronchiectasis.

Clinical onset and operational service [27583]

27588 — the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, is causally related to operational service.

Clinical onset and eligible service [27584]

27587 — the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, is causally related to eligible service.

Clinical worsening and operational service [27586]

27588 — the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, is causally related to operational service.

27589

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, is causally related.

Clinical worsening and eligible service [27585]

27587 — the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, is causally related to eligible service.

27590

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the identified illness or injury, pulmonary tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the lung, is causally related.
