Women need to go to the hospital for regular checkups after pregnancy, and the focus of each cycle is different.
During the third to sixth months of pregnancy, if there is a cyst with a diameter less than 3 mm in the choroid plexus of the fetal lateral ventricle through ultrasound examination, this phenomenon is called choroid plexus cyst. However, pregnant women don't have to worry too much, because fetal choroid plexus cysts continue to grow and develop in the mother, and most of them can disappear on their own.
It can be seen that choroid plexus cyst generally disappears with age, but if choroid plexus cyst appears in children and adults, it should be paid great attention to. Choroid plexus cyst will compress the tissues around the brain. With the aggravation of the disease, there will be other complications, such as affecting the normal circulation of cerebrospinal fluid, and even life-threatening if left unchecked. Patients can make further examination through three-dimensional imaging technology of the brain.
There are many causes of choroid plexus cyst in children, including genetic factors, such as chromosomal abnormalities or brain diseases.
If children's chromosomes are abnormal, such as 2 1- trisomy syndrome and 18- trisomy syndrome, choroid plexus will occupy normal brain tissue, thus making cerebrospinal fluid in the brain unable to function normally.
Brain diseases, such as brain tumors, can also block the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid and cause diseases.
The incidence of choroid plexus cyst in children is low, only 1%-2%, which is controversial in the medical field. Some doctors believe that it is a normal phenomenon of fetal growth and development, and it is a normal intracranial structure. Some doctors think that the cyst of choroid plexus indicates the existence of disease.
There are abundant blood vessels in choroid plexus. If there are cysts here, there are many reasons, but the main reason is that cerebrospinal fluid is produced too fast, which exceeds the speed of aqueduct in the brain, so that the circulation of liquid in cerebrospinal fluid is blocked or blocked, thus causing cysts in the blocked parts.
How to deal with choroid plexus cyst in children is a complex disease. If a child suffers from choroid plexus cyst, it will be much more painful than adults because of low immunity.
But with the development of medical technology, as long as it is found in time and treated regularly, it can basically be cured. Choroid plexus cyst generally needs surgical treatment, including traditional surgery and minimally invasive surgery.
