An : An mis (or minimally invasive solution) can be done on several parts of the body. To determine whether or not you would be admittied to the hospital and recovery time, would need to know the specific body part you are considering having work on. Please be more specific.

Not usually: It depends what you mean by mis. Mis hip or knee replacement usually requires 1-2 days in the hospital. Arthroscopic surgery, which is also mis, is almost always outpatient.
