A member asked:
Are choroid plexus cysts genetically inherited? if planning a family, should my wife and i have pre-pregnancy genetic testing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Whoa: Choroid plexus cysts are very common and almost always a non-problem. Further, they're not really hereditary. Your personal physician is the best person to advise you about any genetic risk. If somebody has a cyst and is concerned, get the facts from someone reliable.
