Preliminary questions [23976]

23977

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

23978 the veteran has had a cerebral trauma through cranial surgery at some time.

23979

the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed for treatment of an illness or injury which is identifiable.

23980the veteran has established the causal connection between the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma and VEA service for epilepsy.

23981the veteran has established the causal connection between the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma and VEA service for the clinical onset of epilepsy.

23983the veteran has established the causal connection between the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma and operational service for the clinical onset of epilepsy.

or

23984the veteran has established the causal connection between the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma and eligible service for the clinical onset of epilepsy.

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.

23982the veteran has established the causal connection between the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma and VEA service for the clinical worsening of epilepsy.

23985the veteran has established the causal connection between the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma and operational service for the clinical worsening of epilepsy.

or

23986the veteran has established the causal connection between the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma and eligible service for the clinical worsening of epilepsy.

Clinical onset and operational service [23983]

23987

the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed for treatment of the identified illness or injury before the clinical onset of epilepsy.

23989the identified illness or injury for which cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed, is causally related to operational service.

Clinical onset and eligible service [23984]

34782

the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed for treatment of the identified illness or injury within the twenty years before the clinical onset of epilepsy.

23990the identified illness or injury for which cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed, is causally related to eligible service.

Clinical worsening and operational service [23985]

23988

the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed for treatment of the identified illness or injury within the twenty years before the clinical worsening of epilepsy.

23989the identified illness or injury for which cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed, is causally related to operational service.

23991

the clinical onset of epilepsy occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury for which cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed, is causally related.

Clinical worsening and eligible service [23986]

23988

the cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed for treatment of the identified illness or injury within the twenty years before the clinical worsening of epilepsy.

23990the identified illness or injury for which cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed, is causally related to eligible service.

23992

the clinical onset of epilepsy occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the identified illness or injury for which cranial surgery resulting in cerebral trauma was performed, is causally related.
