Whats The Risk For A 5 Week Old With 3.5 Mm Choroid Plexus Cyst, Asymmetrical Left Brain Ventricle?

My 1 month old twins were born via scheduled c-section at 38 weeks 5 days pregnant. Twin a was born 5lbs 8oz and they suffered from Suboxone withdrawal. Morphine was used to quickly wean them down. His head ultrasound showed a "low risk" bleed of 3.3mm and the pediatrician said no worries. At 4 weeks old another ultrasound presented a 3.5mm choroid plexus cyst as well as an asymmetrical left brain ventricle. At the 5 week check up I was told to schedule with the pediatric neurologist. What are the risks of such results in my baby who is now 5 weeks and 3 days? I have been told time and time again not to worry, but I honestly just need to hear the facts. Thank you for your time and careful consideration.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, you are right that the twins might be having withdrawal of narcotic but that may not be the cause of choroid plexus cyst, this cyst suppose to go away at the 28 week of gestational age, but this is does not happened, but this will go away soon, more over this cyst does not have any impact on any of activity of person so stop worrying every thing will okay soon take a good care of twins.
