Italian term or phrase: grembiule (nel contesto)

Parlando della chirurgia plastica:
"Di frequente quindi, come esito della cospicua perdita di grasso, si forma un ***grembiule*** dermo-cutaneo lasso, che scende fino al pube e si estende spesso anche alla radice delle cosce, estremamente fastidioso per il paziente"

Do you think I can use "apron" in this context? Any better ideas?
