How dangerous are pineal brain cysts?

What are the effects of choroid plexus cysts in fetal brain & echogenic focus in fetal heart?

• I am 5 months pregnant. My 2nd level ultrasound report shows right & left choroid plexus cysts in fetal brain & 2mm echogenic mass in fetal heart. I want to know are they harmful? If yes, what type of abnormalities can be there in baby? How we can find out? How they can be cured?

• Answer:

  A level 2 ultrasound suggests that you have been referred to a perinatologist. He or she should be the one to discuss this with. My limited experience with choroid plexus cysts was that they came to naught, that there were no associated problems. But the medical literature suggests other possibilities, too. I don't think Yahoo Answers is the place to discuss it. I cannot speak to an echogenic focus in the fetal heart. In my region, a perinatologist would consult with a pediatric cardiologist in such a situation.
