Arachnoid Cyst?Autism?

Arachnoid Cyst?Autism?

My 3 yo son is believed to have high functioning Autism/PDD.
A large arachnoid cyst (about size of lg egg) was found by MRI
(ordered because of lg head size) in the cisterna magna.
It was fenistrated in January. It was underpressure. It was decompressing
ventricles. In review, this cyst was present in scans done in utero at 33 weeks.
Could a cyst of this size and location cause Autistic like symptoms?
I can scan in MRI films or color photo from OR if needed for comment.
