Core Tip This study investigates the outcomes of anterior minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty (MIS-THA), focusing on return to work [return to work (RTW)] and resumption of driving (ROD). Among 124 patients, 94.7% returned to work within an average of 5 weeks. All patients who drove preoperatively resumed driving postoperatively, with an average ROD time of 3.5 weeks. Patients with heavier physical workloads required more time to RTW compared to those with lighter workloads. The findings highlight the advantages of MIS-THA, including reduced recovery times and tailored postoperative care to support occupational demands, contributing to improved quality of life and productivity.
