Bill and Nicole were feeling confident about his recovery, until that Dec. 5 day when it was confirmed he had Monosomy 7, which basically means he doesn't have a pair of No. 7 chromosomes.
"When I came out and asked them how the treatment had worked for other Monosomy 7 patients," said Nicole, "I didn't get an answer.
"Monosomy 7 is a very, very aggressive type of cancer," said Bill.

 Biology 442, Human Genetics - Chromosome Abnormalities
Most trisomies are due to maternal non disjunction in meiosis I; monosomy X is frequently a consequence of non disjunction in male meiosis I. Tetraploidy (4n), is due to a post zygotic non disjunction in mitosis.
Numerical changes are to two types: polyploidy with changes in the number of sets of chromosomes (polyploidy) and aneuploidy with changes in the number of individual chromosomes (e.g., trisomies and monosomies).
These are small (unidentified) chromosomes with a centromere and may be of no consequence if they are "familial" but if they arise de novo in a fetus they may cause congenital anomalies.

 Aneuploidy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Monosomy, or the loss of one chromosome from each cell, is another kind of aneuploidy.
While a trisomy can occur with any chromosome, the most common types in humans are:
Monosomy is the presence of only one chromosome from a pair in a cell's nucleus.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisomy

  
 Medical Dictionary: Monosomy - WrongDiagnosis.com
Introduction: When a person has only one of a given chromosome, rather than a pair, this is called monosomy.
These conditions are very rare for autosomes (chromosomes 1..22) because body cells without pairs do not seem to survive, but can occur in the sex chromosome ( monosomy X is called Turner syndrome).

 Aneuploidy and Deletions
This of course involves loss of genetic information and results in what could be considered "partial monosomy" for that chromosome.

 An introduction on chromosome disorders
A monosomy in all body cells is mostly not viable except for monosomy of the X-chromosome (Turner syndrome).
This can cause a spontaneous miscarriage or to the birth of a child with congenital problems.
Moreover such a ring chromosome can cause problems in cell-division.

 Turner Syndrome
Therefore, there is a total of 45 chromosomes in each cell of the body, rather than 46.
Turner syndrome is a genetic disorder seen in girls that causes them to be shorter than others and to not mature sexually as they grow into adulthood.
About 50 percent of Turner syndrome results from full monosomy X. Forty percent of cases are "mosaic" which means these persons have some cells with a missing X chromosome and others with the normal number of chromosomes.

 Ab10 Monosomy Project
It is important to note that this experiment is designed to determine the effect of monosomy of Ab10 on meiotic drive.
Whether Ab10 monosomy affects recombination rates and/or neocentromeric activity are not directly tested; however, interesting hypotheses concerning recombination rates and neocentromeric activity may emerge from the resulting data.
However, if ovule abortion rates are lower in monosomics for Ab10 than in monosomics for N10 or smd3 -Ab10, we will conclude that Ab10 does not require a pairing partner for meiotic drive activity.

 Turner syndrome
This is particularly true of monosomy X. The fetus shown here died in utero (intrauterine fetal demise) and shows signs of maceration (autolysis) such as the slippage of the skin and the reddened color.
This is not a true neoplasm, but represents failure of lymphatics to form and drain properly.
A feature of many chromosomal abnormalities is fetal hydrops (hydrops fetalis) in which the soft tissues are markedly edematous and body cavities filled with effusions.
