Probably not: Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease. Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory arthritis. I do not believe that they are related to charcot marie tooth.

French neurologist: Jean-martin charcot was a french neurologist. He described ten different conditions ranging from nerve diseases to gallbladder infection. The best known are charcot-marie-tooth, muscle wasting in the leg due to nerve disease, and charcot's arthropathy, arthritis with bone destruction due to nerve disease.
