A 63-year-old male presents to your clinic with several years of progressive left knee pain. The patient is an avid golfer and has had difficulty playing over the last year.

Which of the following represents a potential advantage of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) over total knee arthroplasty (TKA)?
