I have twins and when I was 17 weeks pregnant I was told one of the twins had a CPC and she also had a single umbilical artery and I looked on the net and worried myself stupid that the baby had some sort of syndrome. My dr hightly recommended another scan at a larger hospital to look at the baby in more details and low and behold the cyst had disappeared. We were told that they often appear but then disappear later in the prenancy and on their own are of little significance. I don't know if this is what you mean when you say your baby has this condition but I am presuming the choroid plexus cyst. All the very best and hope all is well with the next scan.
Good luck X
