Frozen assets: Bankrupt Mass. medical device maker lists human cadavers among its property

MANSFIELD, Mass. — A bankrupt Massachusetts medical device maker left behind some gruesome assets when it shut down earlier this year. Innovative Spinal Technologies lists nine human bodies, including “eight previously used” cadavers, among its property in a federal bankruptcy filing. Federal bankruptcy trustee Warren Agin told The Sun Chronicle of Attleboro that the bodies are frozen in the company’s former headquarters and do not pose a public health threat.
