Objective Hallux valgus (HV) is a common foot deformity, and recurrence is one of the most serious complications after HV correction. As a result, the surgical technique with a lower recurrence rate is a dream. The purpose of the article should be to observe the correction effect of hallux valgus using a novel “V‐cut” osteotomy on the first metatarsal head combined with fixation in mortise‐shaped bone groove‐plasty technique. Methods Twenty‐three consecutive patients (40 feet) with HV were included from March 2019 to May 2020, who were all treated using single screw fixation with V‐cut osteotomy on the first metatarsal head combined with mortise‐shaped metatarsal bone groove‐plasty and Akin osteotomy on the first toe for hallux valgus correction. With a mean follow‐up time of 21.7 months, the visual analogue scale (VAS) score and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) forefoot score and the changes of the hallux valgus angle (HVA), intermetatarsal angle (IMA) and distal metatarsal articular angle (DMAA) were evaluated during the clinical follow‐up. The paired t test was used for analytical statistics. Results The VAS score improved from 6.78 ± 1.74 to 1.87 ± 1.45 and the AOFAS score improved from 53.9 ± 12.3 preoperatively to 94.7 ± 6.8 in the latest follow‐up postoperatively (P
