Cirrhosis of the liver - Blockage to the passage of bile Factor
Last reviewed for CCPS 12 March 2008.
Preliminary questions [20509]
22400 there is some evidence that a chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.
20631 the veteran has had a chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum at some time.
20641 the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum is due to an illness or injury which is identifiable.
20632 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum and VEA service for cirrhosis of the liver.
the veteran had a chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum, due to the identified illness or injury, at the time of the clinical onset of cirrhosis of the liver.20633 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum and VEA service for the clinical onset of cirrhosis of the liver.
20635 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum and operational service for the clinical onset of cirrhosis of the liver.
or
20636 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum and eligible service for the clinical onset of cirrhosis of the liver.
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 had a chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum, due to the identified illness or injury, at the time of the clinical worsening of cirrhosis of the liver.20634 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum and VEA service for the clinical worsening of cirrhosis of the liver.
20637 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum and operational service for the clinical worsening of cirrhosis of the liver.
or
20638 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum and eligible service for the clinical worsening of cirrhosis of the liver.
Clinical onset and operational service [20635]
20642 — the identified illness or injury which caused the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [20636]
20643 — the identified illness or injury which caused the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [20637]
20642 — the identified illness or injury which caused the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum is causally related to operational service.
the clinical onset of cirrhosis of the liver occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury which caused the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum, is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [20638]
20643 — the identified illness or injury which caused the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum is causally related to eligible service.
the clinical onset of cirrhosis of the liver occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the identified illness or injury which caused the chronic partial or complete blockage to the passage of bile from the intrahepatic biliary system to the duodenum, is causally related.
