Can Inflammatory Arthritis cause Osteoarthritis to develop in a specific joint of the body?

When the cartilage and surrounding tissue is eroded to a point where the bone touches in joints the result is the same as osteoarthritis when seen on Xray. So it is imperative that inflammation be kept under control in the case of any inflammatory disease.
