Isolated choroid plexus cysts have an extremely low likelihood of causing any problems, and the majority of babies do not have long term neurodevelopmental issues.  If no other abnormalities have been found on the ultrasounds and the chromosome tests were normal, the risk for long term problems is low.  The cysts themselves may or may not go away before the baby is born.
