Both the Medial and lateral menisci are outside the synovial cavity but within the joint cavity.

The Medial meniscus is larger than the lateral meniscus.

The Medial meniscus is C shaped where as the lateral mensicus is circular shaped.

The Medial meniscus is directly attached to the medial collateral ligament, where as the Popliteal muscle interferes in between the attachment of lateral meniscus and lateral collateral ligament.
