Core Tip	Direct anterior total hip arthroplasty may provide higher rates of patients discharged to home and shorter hospital stays when compared to other approaches. Long term functional outcomes do not appear to be improved by an intramuscular approach. Complication rates may be high during the initial learning period of performing this approach; however, these rates are generally shown to not exceed that of other approaches once a surgeon has completed a modest number of cases.
