For answering this, I need to see your colonoscopy and biopsy report, serum CEA level. But as such these are early tumours, where there is always a chance for cure, but you should be in a regular followup with colonoscopy.
Next Steps
followup required

Chances of recurrence are 1-5 percent at same site once resected with clear margin.
However once there is a polyp in one part of colon there are chances of polyps and carcinomas in other part of colon for which surveillance is recommended
Next Steps
Annual colonoscopy and endoscopy ( chances of periampullary polyp)
