A member asked:
How common is it to have multiple arachnoid cysts (one in right temporal and one in left frontal lobe) both approx 5mm in size?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2 cysts: Having 2 isn't as common as 1, of course. At 5mm they are tiny compared to most. Rarely are they anything to worry about.
