The purposes of this study were to evaluate the presence or absence of pain with the jerk test as a predictor of the success of nonoperative treatment for posteroinferior instability of the shoulder and to identify pathologic lesion responsible for the pain in the jerk test. Eighty-nine shoulders(81 patients), which had posteroinferior instability with positive posterior clunk in the jerk test, were nonoperatively treated.
