Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cancellation of the whole disability pension could be upheld on reconsideration under Art. 53(2) ATSG.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The original 2000 pension decision was manifestly incorrect and based on inadequate medical assessment; reconsideration was permissible.
Fundamentação extraída
The first pension award rested on an incomplete and premature medical basis, without considering the October 2000 surgery and its consequences. The prior assessment lacked a comprehensible explanation of working capacity, so the initial decision was clearly wrong.
