English translation:Severe hemorrhage from rupture of a / the lower saphenous-femoral communicant vein
Explanation:
At least in the US, "important" is almost never used to characterize an hemorrhage. Used adjectives are mild, moderate, and severe (...and fatal).

The word for "comunicante" is "communicant". Below is an example from an article referring to a renal vein
