Historically, there has been little consensus on the ideal first-line treatment. Currently, definitive treatment involves sublingual gland excision, which can injure the lingual nerve and submandibular duct. Minimally invasive surgical techniques have been proposed, but so far have been associated with a high rate of recurrence.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215121003327_sec_a2\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The so-called piercing\u2013stretching suture technique was performed in 14 na\u00efve adult and paediatric patients (6 females, with a mean age of 20.3 years (range, 7\u201355 years)).
