Medical - Medical (general) / Medical certificate from an emergency room
French term or phrase: CE
This abbreviation is in a medical certificate released by an emergency room and it reads:
Plaie plante du pied G de 0,5 cm sans CE

Tried to look everywhere for another abbreviation of CE but can't figure this out.
Thanks in advance to whoever will illuminate me :-)

corps étranger > foreign body (FB)
Explanation:
This examples I'm finding online relate mostly to eye injuries, rather than feet, but I'm sure it's the same meaning.

"S05.0 LES. TRAUMA. CONJONCTIVE ET ABRASION DE CORNEE SANS MENTION DE C.E. [...]
S05.4 PLAIE PENETRANTE DE L'ORBITE, AVEC OU SANS C.E.
S05.5 PLAIE PENETRANTE DU GLOBE OCULAIRE, AVEC C.E."

"S05.00 Injury of conjunctiva and corneal abrasion without foreign body, unspecified eye [...]
S05.01 Injury of conjunctiva and corneal abrasion without foreign body, right eye"
https://www.icd10data.com/ICD10CM/Codes/S00-T88/S00-S09/S05-

But here it is with feet:

"S91 Plaie ouverte de la cheville et du pied
[...]
Plaie (coupure) (lacération) (morsure animal) (avec corps étranger pénétrant) ongle orteil"
https://www.aideaucodage.fr/cim-s912

It can apply to injuries in any part of the body:

"Head injuries: Scalp wounds (S01 code) [...]
State presence of FOREIGN BODY
 With FB (describe it)
 Without FB (will assume no FB unless stated)"

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks for the help! I decided in fact to not abbreviate it in the translation and put "foreign body"

agree  philgoddard: Yes, but I wouldn't abbreviate it, or you're reproducing the source text's lack of clarity.
