Popis: Objective: Our objective was to compare foot width (bony and soft tissues) in radiological images pre- vs. post-corrective scarf osteotomy in patients with hallux valgus. Methods: We retrospectively performed measurements of forefoot width (both bony diameter and total diameter including soft tissues) on anterior posterior standard radiographs of 30 patients, totaling 42 feet, pre- and postoperatively, at three months. These measurements were performed by two evaluators and their reliability was calculated. Results: Radiologically, preoperative mean of the 1-5 metatarsal bony width was 89.30mm (SD ± 5.8), reduced to 80.42mm postoperatively (SD ± 3.5; p
