Traditional lateral soft tissue release (LSTR) was conducted by an additional dorsal first web incision, as the malformed thick scar and neuritis were common after surgery. A new method of lateral soft tissue release in a single medial incision via dorsal flap over the first metatarsal (LSTR‐SMI‐DFFM) should be recommended. The objective is to investigate the clinical effectiveness and safety of scarf + Akin osteotomy (SAO) combined with lateral soft tissue release in a single medial incision via dorsal flap over the first metatarsal (LSTR‐SMI‐DFFM) for moderate to severe hallux valgus.
