For this sort of thing, "rewrite" (http://nginx.org/r/rewrite) is probably
the directive you want.
rewrite (.*)/(.*) $1/$2/$2.html break;
can do what you want in this case.
What do you want to happen if the user asks for any of:
http://www.example.com/public/doc/abc123
http://www.example.com/public/doc/abc123?para=nodata
http://www.example.com/public/doc/abc123/abc123.html
http://www.example.com/public/doc/one/two
The rewrite directive above may or may not do what you want for those.

1) is in the rewrite (or any similar configuration which maps url to file)
2) is by virtue of not doing an external rewrite, which is a redirection.
