Nine frozen corpses are among the gruesome assets listed by a bankrupt US company.
Massachusetts medical device maker, Innovative Spinal Technologies, has listed 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.
He said arrangements for proper disposal are being made.
The Mansfield-based company made tools for minimally invasive back surgery, and the bodies were kept in an area where doctors were trained to use the devices.
The company shut down in February and filed for bankruptcy last month.
