The fetal choroid plexus produces CSF that leads to the normal expansion and development of the ventricular system. In some cases, fluid may get trapped, leading to the identification of choroid plexus cysts (CPCs) during prenatal ultrasound. The natural history of CPCs is resolution by 28 weeks. CPCs are not considered a structural brain abnormality, but are present in fetuses with trisomy 18 along with other multiple anomalies. An isolated CPC is a common finding in euploid fetuses.
