PY - 2023 T2 - Timor's Ultrasonography of the Prenatal Brain, 4e AB - KEY POINTSOne of the most common findings on sonographic evaluation of the fetal brain.Easily detected due to its obvious anechoic appearance at places that should not be present.Prognosis varies from a normal benign variant with minimal to no clinical significance that often regresses spontaneously, to poor, based on the specific type of cyst and associated structural and genetic anomalies.Larger cysts may exert pressure on adjacent organs causing displacement of structures, or obstruct the flow of cerebrospinal fluid.Although mostly isolated, they can be associated with other pathologies; therefore targeted neuroscan and detailed anatomy scan are warranted.
