He clarified on his GoFundMe campaign that while his metastases had been removed after successful liver surgery in June 2017, he still had the disease and had refused further adjuvant therapy.
In March 2018, Stefán Karl was diagnosed with inoperable bile duct cancer, and said that he was undergoing chemotherapy to increase the length of his life.
In April 2018, he announced that he personally chose to stop his chemotherapy, and then began to shut down all his social media accounts.
He died on 21 August 2018 at the age of 43.

The western part of the Highlands, mainly in Venezuela, is where are the higher mountains.
From west to east, the mountains ranges and plateaus are:
Serra do Imeri / Cerro de la Neblina - the most southern mountain range; the Pico da Neblina is here.
Sierra / Cerro Parima - mountain range between Venezuela and Brazil; here starts the Orinoco river.
Pacaraima Mountains- a mountain range in the border of Venezuela, Guyana and Brazil; here is the Mount Roraima, the highest mountain of Guyana.
La Gran Sabana (The "Great Savanna") - a plateau in Venezuela that is part of the Canaima National Park.
Kanuku y Kamoa Mountains - In southern Guyana.

The highest point in the Guiana Shield is Pico da Neblina () in Brazil at .
Many rivers start on the Guiana Highlands and most of them flow to the north, into the Atlantic Ocean.

As a whole, the Guiana Shield region has a tropical climate characterized by a relatively high mean annual temperature over  at sea level.
Because of the Guiana Shield is just north of the equator, its climate varies primarily according to elevation and the effects of the trade winds.
The trade winds blow from the east and northeast, off of the Atlantic Ocean onto northeastern South America.
The heaviest rains usually occur between May and August, whereas the rainy season from December to January is shorter and less intense, with rains mostly along the coast.
In areas where there is only one rainy season, the driest part of the year is January to March; in areas where there are two rainy seasons the driest months are March and October.
However, even during most dry seasons, frequent storms provide adequate moisture to allow evergreen tropical moist forests to persist in most low elevation parts of the region.
The climate data for Santa Elena de Uairén weather station () in La Gran Sabana at an altitude of  are:.
Plant and animal life
Many of the mountains are covered in permanent clouds and mist washing all the soil away, and leaving barren rock and water.
Because of this many plants are carnivorous and feed on insects and small animals.
Mineral resource
Some minerals are found in large amounts in the Guiana Shield; diamonds, gold and bauxite are some of them.
The large-scale mining of these, and other minerals, is creating some environmental problems.
