Your question is too vage to reply to properly. If the cyst is only a cyst then  the chances  will be no. But without a MRI with CONTRAST that call can not be made. Cyst vary from what location of the brain the cyst is in to the size and if it's pushing into the Hippa Champas(SP) She probally has a achnorolid and was born with it. You can go th Med Help after she gets a name and google it in Does she have a site on here if so have her to give me a shout out
