Preliminary questions [27497]

27498

there is some evidence that a trauma to the aorta may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.

27499 the veteran has suffered a penetrating or blunt major thoracic or abdominal trauma that has damaged the aorta at some time.

27500

the veteran has suffered a penetrating or blunt major thoracic or abdominal trauma that has damaged the aorta at the site of the condition under consideration.

27501the veteran has established the causal connection between the trauma to the aorta and VEA service for aortic aneurysm.

27503the veteran has established the causal connection between the trauma to the aorta and VEA service for the clinical onset of aortic aneurysm.

27506the veteran has established the causal connection between the trauma to the aorta and operational service for the clinical onset of aortic aneurysm.

or

27507the veteran has established the causal connection between the trauma to the aorta and eligible service for the clinical onset of aortic aneurysm.

or

7334

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service.

7335

the condition under consideration permanently worsened.

27505the veteran has established the causal connection between the trauma to the aorta and VEA service for the clinical worsening of aortic aneurysm.

27508the veteran has established the causal connection between the trauma to the aorta and operational service for the clinical worsening of aortic aneurysm.

or

27509the veteran has established the causal connection between the trauma to the aorta and eligible service for the clinical worsening of aortic aneurysm.

Clinical onset and operational service [27506]

27510

on operational service, the veteran suffered a penetrating or blunt major thoracic or abdominal trauma that damaged the aorta at the site of the condition under consideration.

27511

on operational service, the veteran suffered a penetrating or blunt major thoracic or abdominal trauma that damaged the aorta at the site of the condition under consideration before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.

27512

the penetrating or blunt major thoracic or abdominal trauma that damaged the aorta at the site of the condition under consideration, on operational service, before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.
