J-bone grafts were harvested, prepared, and implanted according to a previously described, clinically used technique. Glenohumeral contact patterns were measured using dynamic pressure-sensitive sensors under a compressive load of 440 N with the humerus in (a) 30\u00b0 of abduction, (b) 30\u00b0 of abduction and 60\u00b0 of external rotation, (c) 60\u00b0 of abduction, and (d) 60\u00b0 of abduction and 60\u00b0 of external rotation. Using a custom shoulder-testing system allowing positioning with 6 degrees of freedom, a compressive load of 50 N was applied, and the peak force needed to translate the humeral head 10 mm anteriorly at a rate of 2.0 mm\/s was recorded. All tests were performed (1) for the intact glenoid, (2) after the creation of a 30% anterior osseous glenoid defect parallel to the longitudinal axis of the glenoid, and (3) after anatomic glenoid reconstruction with an implant-free J-bone graft. Furthermore, after glenoid reconstruction, each specimen was translated anteriorly for 5 mm at a rate of 4.0 mm\/s for a total of 3000 cycles while logging graft protrusion and mediolateral bending motions. Graft micromovements were recorded using 2 high-resolution, linear differential variable reluctance transducer strain gauges placed in line with the long leg of the graft and the mediolateral direction, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The creation of a 30% glenoid defect significantly decreased glenohumeral contact areas ( P &lt; .05) but significantly increased contact pressures at all abduction and rotation positions ( P &lt; .05). Glenoid reconstruction restored the contact area and contact pressure back to levels of the native glenohumeral joint in all tested positions. The mean (\u00b1SD) force to translate the humeral head anteriorly for 10 mm (60\u00b0 of abduction: 31.7 \u00b1 12.6 N; 60\u00b0 of abduction and 60\u00b0 of external rotation: 28.6 \u00b1 7.6 N) was significantly reduced after the creation of a 30% anterior bone glenoid defect (60\u00b0 of abduction: 12.2 \u00b1 6.8 N; 60\u00b0 of abduction and 60\u00b0 of external rotation: 11.4 \u00b1 5.4 N; P &lt; .001). After glenoid reconstruction with a J-bone graft, the mean peak translational force significantly increased (60\u00b0 of abduction: 85.0 \u00b1 8.2 N; 60\u00b0 of abduction and 60\u00b0 of external rotation: 73.6 \u00b1 4.5 N; P &lt; .001) compared with the defect state and baseline. The mean total graft protrusion under cyclical translation of the humeral head over 3000 cycles was 138.3 \u00b1 169.8 \u00b5m, whereas the mean maximal mediolateral graft deflection was 320.1 \u00b1 475.7 \u00b5m.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Implant-free anatomic glenoid reconstruction with the J-bone grafting technique restored near-native glenohumeral contact areas and pressures, provided secure initial graft fixation, and demonstrated excellent osseous glenohumeral stability at time zero.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical Relevance:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The implant-free J-bone graft is a viable alternative to commonly used glenoid reconstruction techniques, providing excellent graft fixation and glenohumeral stability immediately postoperatively.
