Hello,

Is your artery re-sutured or grafted? If grafted then it is working if you haven't have any symptoms till now and for ulnar nerve level of injury suggests that hand function would had been compromised and tendon surgery may help.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
