Choroid plexus cysts (CPC) are pseudocysts in the fetal choroid plexus and can be detected during ultrasound examination. However, the etiology of fetuses with CPC is still unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the genetic anomalies of fetuses with CPC using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array analysis, as well as their obstetrical outcomes.
