Dear patient borderline cancer means early stage of cancer. It has good prognosis if treated properly and completely. Urine cytology has less diagnostic importance than histopathology. I would advise cystoscope biopsy from affected site to confirm diagnosis. Visit expert urologist with report. All the best.
