A 50-year-old man had a 1-cm sessile sigmoid polyp removed with cold snare technique in one piece and tattooed distally during screening colonoscopy. Final pathology report showed a sessile serrated adenoma with a focus of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma invading the lower third of the submucosa but not invading the muscularis propria.

What is the most acceptable next step for this patient?
