Probably normal!: Up to 0.3-3.6% of all fetuses will have choroid plexus cysts noted during screening prenatal sonography. Most of the time this is an incidentaloma of no clinical significance (normal babies have this all the time). Occasionally it is associated with fetal trisomy 18 or edwards' syndrome - a severe/lethal fetal anomaly - however additional problems are typically seen in such cases. Maternit21 ok!
