“…Similarly, the outcomes reported vary from normal neurodevelopment in the majority of the cases to muscle tone abnormalities, cerebral palsy and developmental delay with or without seizures (Table 1). 2,3,[5][6][7][9][10][11] Discordant results in the literature could be due to biases in research design such as case reports or case series, inclusion of either term or both term and preterm population in most studies, 2,3,5,6,10,12 inclusion of infants with other CUS abnormalities without a similar comparator group (controls), number of infants lost to follow-up 2 and the potential confounding effect of preterm gestation on neurodevelopment outcome. In the only case-control study published to date, Wong et al 11 compared growth and neurodevelopmental outcomes in 10 infants with and without isolated paraventricular cysts.…”
